Something I am not sure of, if someone can authenticate the buckle and belt. Thanks!

Hello welcome to the forum and happy new year

not sure about the markings on the belt but the buckle is an original nickel SS by Overhoff

Thank you Sir! I purchased this SS buckle and belt from Prague's military antique shop. I know there have been lots of fake and repro stuff from Eastern Europe but I believe there is still authentic piece out there. Much appreciated....

A nice addition to any collection. It is the most common type of the nickel SS buckles but still a valuable buckle. The markings on belt need more research. You have to be careful with any SS marked leather. A lot of original leather items have had SS markings added post war.
