3GU-21. Stamped aluminum buckle with overall pebbled finish. Embossed Luftwaffe eagle and swastika within an oak leaf wreath on a stippled background. The eagle is very heavily worn; parts of the background behind the eagle and the surrounding wreath are moderate to heavily worn. The backside is maker marked, “J.D.,” The backside exhibits light soil and is heavily worn, in some spots, from actual use. The very dark brown leather tab has been re-sewn onto the buckle at some time, it exhibits moderate to heavy signs of age; it’s completely intact and appears to have been oiled at some time; the leather is stamped, “L.B.A., J Deutscrbe, Euskrichen,” (Euskichen is a town located in south west Germany), and is dated 1938, (the date is very clear, however, a few of the letters of the trade name are not completely legible). A very worthy representative example with lots of character. Good+. $80.00 SOLD |
| Waffen SS Enlisted Man, Silver Painted, Stamped Steel Belt Buckle | |
 |
3GU-23. A one piece, stamped steel buckle exhibiting the distinctive SS eagle and swastika insignia within a circle and bearing the SS motto, “Meine Ehre Heist Treue!” A classic example, which includes a nicely detailed swastika and wreath; clear lettering and detailed eagle. Approximately 25%, or more, of the original silver paint remains on the front of the buckle, which is overall heavily aged and exhibits moderate, (heavy in some spots), wear and scratches from handling and use; some spots are worn through the paint to the gray looking base metal, which has darkened and has dark red rust patina, in some of the worn areas. The backside will smoothly accept any original WW2 German leather belt; the buckle is complete with its round metal belt hook catch with flat welded ends and double belt-adjusting prongs. The backside retains approximately 70% of its original silver paint; the paint is moderately worn to base gray metal, in some spots, from the rubbing of a belt; the backside also exhibits moderate spots of light rust and deep red rust patina. Unmarked as many of them were. This buckle has seen some activity. A very sound example that’s 1000% guaranteed to be an original, WW2 period, SS buckle. SCARCE. Vg-. $295.00 SOLD |
