Inspectors stamps. Do you know if your car had an emblem or a decal for the engine call out on the hood? Rear sway bar?

I have looked at a lot of tags. Not once have I seen a stamp like that on the tag.

May I use the picture in some other places to ask for more information?

I've seen several tags with similar stamps and some with holes punched right through.
in fact go on google images and look up "Mopar fender tags" and you'll see a bunch.

So, would this stamp have had something to do with not having those little square tags they put under the screws that usually have the number/letter stamps on them?
If the factory didn't have any of those tags left, then they would have just punched the fender tag?

I would like to know why this exists.

Somebody likely knows the answer but it's not me. I just double checked and I'm surprised to see that this is an LA tag and mine is Hamtramk from the following year and both have the "10" on them. I was expecting to see that they were from the same plant.
