Luftwaffe Officer's First Pattern buckle-OLC- Authentic?

**Geo3310** · 03-29-2018, 12:03 AM

Good evening,

I hope you are all doing well.

A friend of mine just picked this up and has asked me to request some advice from the experts. I have searched the forum for other OLC marked buckles, but am still unsure if it is an original. Thank you for any advice.

When you have a look in the first edition from Angolia
and have a look at page 46 (below), there you see
an Overhoff first type, which I was given during one
of my many visits at this concern in the early 1970's!
