1940 H. Aurich Luftwaffe Buckle Value

[cpa1975]

Can anyone help with value of an aluminum Luftwaffe pebble finish belt buckle? The back of the buckle is marked A 39 and leather tab is marked H. Aurich Dresden 1940. There are also the initials LBA stamped in the leather. Thanks for your help.

Any photos? That would help, also have you tried doing a bit of self help and looking on dealers sites at an average Lufte buckle in the same condition, it will give you an idea

Obviously I looked for dealer sites with one for sale. That search was how I found this site. I know absolutely nothing about this and was hopeful that someone knowledgable could give me an estimated value before I try to sell it.

Without pictures very very hard, if in bad condition could be around $70, if stone mint $250-300, all dependent on condition, rarity ect

Thanks. That's a lot more information that I had. The condition to me looks very good - all detail is apparent, pebbled finish is not worn and it isn't scratched. I will try to take pics that show the detail and post them.

BTW have you had a look in the Luftewaffe database thread?

Yes...as Ben mentioned: It's very hard without having a look at the buckle. Sounds like a nice piece and sounds legit as well. Looking forward to seeing it!
Welcome aboard!
