thoughts on this dug buckle please

[maximus71]

saw this dug relic buckle on a website(not ioffer!) and wondered if its real, im trying to build a collection of battle dug relics without buying fakes or repos due to my lack of knowledge, so is it genuine? looks to be in too good of shape for being a dig find.

This is a real nickel Weimar WH buckle, which was sometimes worn in the NS period as well. Original good condition examples are cheap, so don't pay too much for this ground-found one.

I agree with the above comment, buckle is original but these are very cheap buckles, so unless this is a few bucks I would go for a undamaged one
