Got it...thanks alot guys. I forgot to post this pic...I was told it's a luftwaffe goering division magnetic buckle. What do u think?

This last Luftwaffe buckle you have posted IS a reproduction. The eagle tail, prongs and general lack of detail are the main giveaways. The date being "cutoff" like that is also a no-no.
Sorry....

Thanks, Rob...I'm glad I avoided an unoriginal piece! I If find more belt buckles, I'll post just a couple at a time and in a new thread each time as Ade suggested. If you have knowldge about the tinnies, medals, badges and armbands that I am and will be posting in the other forum sections I would value your opinion on those as well.

Thanks again,
Adam

Sounds good. I'll keep my eyes open. My second largest area of collecting (after buckles) is armbands.....so I will hopefully be able to help you some!
Glad you didn't get burned on the repro luftwaffe buckle!
Cheers!
