Majestic 460 or 463 radio question

Slightly off-topic, but since Grunow also marketed radios under the Majestic name:

I recently purchased what was advertised as a 1934 Majestic 460 Chrome Grill. It's a relatively small (about 13" x 13") tombstone style radio with amazing art deco styling (although there is a tag on the back from an earlier collector indicating the year as 1933).

Here is my question that perhaps a radio collector of greater wizdom than I may know: The label on the chassis has the model number 460, but a label on the inside of the wood case has the model number 463. Is this a marriage of two un-related radios or did Majestic number chassis and cases separately?

Don't have any photos of "mine" but those will work for now. One thing about that set is that it has a real rich sound! 12 speaker and that wood cabinet is just amazing! Powerful radio she be!
