Thanks Wim! Always grateful for your detail and contributions. Hope your friends collection has a break through and they locate his items. Be well.

I check with Gary and his Diplomatic buckle with the same silver and gold combination isn’t marked. He says none of his are marked and he hasn’t ever come across a marked one. A nice score. Being a Goverment officials buckle I am not surprised it is over complicated what group and what pay grade wore what what color buckle with what Brocade.

Thanks much Kirby. I was quite happy to see it Assmann marked and the price of 175.00 US was a good price for a rarer variation. Thanks for checking to see if Gary’s were maker marked. Most appreciated. Be well.

It is not difficult at all, when one has the correct information.
A good explanation about government and diplomatic would clarify all!
I would like to know what is meant with "early" (buckle)?

Wim, When I saw this buckle and bought it I had not seen one like it in my travels. When I posted it I was unsure whether it was a forestry variant or diplomatic variant. I had posted early as I felt with the brass construction versus an aluminum construction that it was made pre 1939 or earlier WWII. Not sure my rationale or logic makes sense. I admit I am not as studied on the regulations as I am on the buckles themselves. I had to consult with Ben Evans on this one myself and I seem to think he felt it was an earlier marked variant unless I am mistaken. Hope that makes sense on my “early” label. Thanks again for your data provided on this thread.

Why some of these buckles are made from materials that were not allowed after 1936,
I have no idea about. There is still a lot to be discovered.
When the word "early" is being used then I automatically think about the period 1932
through 1934 or so. But then there were no official governmental or diplomatic uniforms.
They were a fact since about 1938/1939.
