Waffen SS Sd.Kfz.251 licence plates

Hi. I was wondering, on typical 12th SS Sd.Kfz.251 ausf D's in Normandy in 1944, did they have one or two red stamps per registration plate?

Also, why would two stamps be necessary? I know that the stamps were an official marking certifying the registration plate was official, so why do some photos show two?

Finally, does anyone know what diameter the stamps were?

Thank you so much!
