Reichswehr Buckles

[aechols83]

Hi All,

Unfortunately been on a bit of a forum/buckle hiatus due to work but now venturing back into the collecting hobby. Attached here are some recent additions to include a Paul Cramer und Co. marked nickel Reichswehr, a 40mm and a very interesting Turnerbund conversion by Berg & Nolte (Guido, I know you hold one of these ) Note the raised roundel on these conversion pieces. Interesting to compare to the somewhat odd example offered on the collector's guild site here: The Collector's Guild

Of course any and all comments welcome and looking forward to other examples.

Best,
Adam

Thank you for showing these super RW buckles. Here is my conversion buckle. I have no doubt the original buckle is a DT, but of course to prove it one would have to either remove the roundel or the steel plate! I think the same model conversion also exists with a WH roundel, but couldn't find a picture just now.

Kind regards, Kurt
