JFS Other Ranks tan Luftwaffe belt buckle

[Bob Lyons]

Hi all,

I picked this up locally, and get very scared with some of the local stuff that comes up, this was apparently from German E-Bay,
so I would love to get some confirmation one way or the other if this is a good'un or not....

Thanks for looking !

Cheers

Bob (the tab has a very faint 1942 date on it).

Just an observation, it is odd that the leather tongue and buckle are in worn condition yet the stitching looks almost new.. I would say a big berry fake, JMO of course.

Hi Gwar,

Yes and you answered just as I was about to say exactly that, I did some searching and came to the same conclusion, it is the so called "Big berry fake"

I had my suspicions, but it was a late night trade, and I can return it to where it came from, and thanks for your prompt reply mate, as always, greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Bob

It is indeed a big berry fake with added tab and aged
