HJ bakelite buckle centre...

Well guys, you aint going to believe it, but when i went to pick up my SS RZM 57 today, the collector/dealer said he wanted to show me something that I may like as I was now collecting buckles... So, he then produced this exact same bakelite buckle centre that I had over 15 years ago... You could have knocked me down with a feather. He can't remember where he got it, but he's had it for between 10 and 15 years and I probably reckon I traded it to him back then...

Of course I wasn't passing this by, it had to come home with me....

It's correct dimensions for a HJ centre, and has a gold wash, gild, gold paint or whatever....

It looks like a broken buckle centre that's been filed down...

Thoughts????

No RZM in the bakelite?

No, no markings.. I wouldn't expect there to be really... Just a puzzling item... Another colletcor friend thought it more likely to be a prototype HJ leader buckle part???
