HJ buckle from weekend antique trip

[josephc]

This is the second of the three buckles I bought at a group shop in Maine. All three from same dealer. Case had a variety of German Militaria. This Hitler Youth buckle was least expensive of the three because of its being dented. I hope I can "fix" it. I can not make out the manufacturer. Is this valid buckle or bad one?

Let it damaged because you could destroy it . And then the big disappointment .
