That was a part of my question above. The number "25" is in a completely different font and much sharper, than the standard stamped numbers as seen below in the model number and barrel length stamps. This led me to wonder if it was a "25th anniversary stamp" or some such. I haven't seen this type stamp from Lawrence before. But most likely a stamp done in error and stamped over as you surmise.
