Need Help! O&C Ge Gesh SS buckle

[Hartman]

Hi gentlemen! Once again I need your precious help?
Is It a genuine early buckle?
The seller describes it as made of steel! Is it steel or silver nickel?









Many thanks by advance!

It looks like a beat up early "nickel" one to me - look at the 3rd picture, brass showing through?

compare with this one...

Nickel for me too because I never heard about an early buckle made in steel.
For me steel is a late war material.

Hello,

the buckle is a early made most comon nickel silver buckle from Overhoff .

You don't find this early maker mark on steel buckles !

Same conclusion Yellow12! Wrong description from the seller.
