Hi guys, just got back from my hols and had some new arrivals waiting for me. This Heer buckle is unkown to me. The maker mark is GD Gd, I have never seen this makers mark before and am hoping that someone may know who the maker mark is? So guys if anyone knows or has any idea could you please let me know

Well guys I may have found my maker, it is guess work but I have both buckles and to me they are the same maker, see for yourselves. I think it is Gebruder Deyhle Schwab Gmund GD Gd look and compare the pictures and tell me what you think

Cheers, Ade.

Thanks guys, I know one is more worn than the other, if you look at the lettering especially it indicate that they were made by the same maker, buckles look the same but each makers die has its own characteristics, I am quite happy with what I can see
