I do not like this. I do not know about the roundel but one solder point and and a prong system that looks like it was made yesterday.......

Can i post a better picture to make sure? This one was from a better source . Was hoping it would be real..

I agree with Wewelsburg. I am not 100% convinced that these two pieces belong together.. It appears that the SA emblem was removed from one buckle and reattached to anther one. The aging looks off, it is not evenly aged in my opinion from the SA emblem to the buckle. I am also not too keen on the single solder point. I am used to seeing two solder marks.

I dont like the single solder point either, I also dont like the prongs and prong sleeve, post war IMO

Just looking over the pictures of the "real ones" what would this solder point be considered ?

In order to give a more educated answer in reference to the back of the buckle that you posted, is this an SA buckle???, and from what source are you stating this a "real one" ??. A picture of the front of the buckle would help..

Help us all to learn by adding some more information.. We want to help you..

Take a look at some of the fake SA buckles here.. Take a look at post # 7 and again at post # 12. The prongs were spot welded but in the case of your buckle, those prongs could have been cut and a single spot weld applied...

The buckle that you posted is not a sun wheel swastika.

I see the color difference on the prong system. Not brass at all more of a regular metal. But as for the buckle itself still holding out for a little hope, not ready to throw in the towel in just yet. .
