    OK, I can explain the difference. I bad speack in english. I am afraid that You bad I shall understand.
    But I shall try. Your photographies bad, much little are seen, but this never mind.
    The Buckle, which You have shown is intended for ordinary soldier (not for officer!)
    Such buckle at period WWII soldier was not carried!!! They carried other belt.
    You may look the thousand a photography and nowhere will find such type of the buckle, which is shown by
    You. Here is examples from my archive photography.

    BUT! Such type of the buckle existed the pre-war period. I am shown photography from book.
    This very rare type. Not all collectors in Russia have such buckle in collections.
    For instance beside me its no. This buckle easy to distinguish on scene of the sickle and hammer.
    This scene such as on buckle officer belt.
    Now You may these scenes to compare to its buckle.

    Same pertains to Your sea buckle. Its not period WWII. I can not immediately find in its my collections examples.
    But this not it is necessary.
    Round stamp is seen With back of the buckle. Such stamp characteristic of for buckle made in 50-e year.
    Here is photo example old buckle (not mine). You may compare themselves
