    That Stahlhelm is a fake....hard call on the SA: the roundel looks good....I wonder if it might have been applied to a bogus box? Weird to see that "off center" solder.
    I would personally stay away from both of them.

    The Stahlhelm is for sure a fake, the SA is a bit of an enigma, from the front it does not look to bad but from the rear the solder points are incorrect but again that could have been an error but I dont like the blunt end of the prongs so I am going to look at that one some more before I give an opinion on it

    I think the Stahlhelm may be original. David posted one in the sticky thread on Stahlhelm buckles.

    Hey Rob, we must have been replying at the same time lol the SA is a weird one, good from the front but a strange rear!

    I did not like the Stalhelm due to the paint and the flat head on the pin, I am sure David will read this thread and give us his opinion

    Enlarge the photo and you can see the buckle has a pebbled finish and the pins look pointed.

    The aluminium buckle that displays the steel helmet and swastika is now seldom seen and for some, is actually a desirable and quite valuable non fake item.

    Although not a fake, in my opinion it is a pure fantasy buckle.

    This so called Stahlhelm buckle has been around since the 1970's and there is an unsubstantiated story that the item was specifically commissioned by a dealer in I think, the Netherlands.
