Good question! Gold GO's were Eastern Peoples- But --I have a feeling that High Ranking Government Officials may have worn Gold---

One of my favorite style daggers. The daggers are so good looking and here is a gold government officials buckle. I think it has one of the ugliest eagles of the era.

Thanks for showing this dagger Wiki

I think it has no reply's because almost no one has any experience with these high end 20K+daggers, so saying it is gorgeous and then seeing it burned because its a replica isnt something to look for.
Thats why they are cautious.
I dont have any knownledge of these daggers, so i cant say anything about its originality,but at first and second glare, i can only admit that its a gorgeous looker

Thx for showing!

Regards,
Ger

I have to say it has some characteristics in detail....that matches a Standard Govt. Official..but also I echo Gerrits thoughts. The hangers I know you must of added on to it..as the condition of both are unmatching. Regardless still a nice looking dagger. Regards Larry

Gerrit and Larry- Thanks for the comments. Yes ,I was surprised that this "High End " dagger got such little traffic. I picked up this dagger from the same prominent dealer that I bought the Feldherrnhlle dagger from. This dragger is 100% right and yes the hangers were probably added. I bought the set together. I saw a similar dagger at the SOS without hangers for 30K -So you are right about the crazy dollar amount. I had to have it to go with my Political collection!

Now THAT is Very nice Wiki.
What a great example of a RMBO. Talk about a hard dagger to find. well, you can find them but not in that condition. Congrats!

Here is one on a dagger book cover by T. Johnson.

Thanks Serge, I've only seen one in similar condition- It was the one at the SOS being sold by a well known dealer. I am going to have to dig out my Johnson book and compare.
