I have a DOPP.Z.92 fuze images from Aberdeen. I am trying to figure of is this mark (either an O or C) is part of the fuze or put there by someone else.
it's a brass screw cut into half from turning the fuze shape. This screw is closing a hole which is filled with a spring and a plunger. This plunger sets back when firing and is blocking the time ring (it can't rotate). This feature was added to the fuze because they had problems that the time ring moved slightly from the projectile rotation.
No there was definitively no change of the designation. The change was made in 1899. The Dopp. Z. 98 got the same change but I don't know in which year.
