Welcome to LTG!
Could have a few meanings. usually something "custom" on her. Best would be you could post a few pictures of your guitar so we could have a look what the special parts could be.

Ralf's correct, a "Spcial" indicated some detail that wasn't "standard" for the model, perhaps fretboard inlays, or a different fretboard wood. Upgraded tuners are another likely detail.
In the case of D40's I've seen at least a couple that were "specials" because of dual pickguards, as well as a "DPG" suffix on the model number to note the same "variation"
It's also possible the detail(s) that made it a "Special" in the first place got changed over the guitar's life.

I had a Guild "Special" that was a prototype for a later guild model. Different wood; different inlay.
Both were used on later models with different designations.

Well, what does the label say? But, OK, have a good evening.
Details such as spelling, or editing, for example.

Unless you talk swedish in Finland - "o i åa ä e öa" = "and there's an island in the river" . . .
