LW Belt and buckle with very interesting unit mark!

Article about: Hi all, I want to present you one of my most recent acquisitions, a steel LW buckle with cloth tab and leather belt. Both came from a very large lot of stuff I got for very cheap from a fire

    Well, you could see brush strokes in the silver so I doubt it, it looked very handmade, also if it were silver plated it wouldn't have dissolved with just paint thinner, silver plating is an actual coat of silver metal. If you take a look at the white tab one it has the silver plating on the inside, too, mine had none of that.
    I'd be very surprised if they applied cheap silver paint in the factory to their high quality buckles
    Besides, you couldn't silver plate something that was painted like this one was, it needs to be just the metal to be plated.

    Ah, most likely not then- that makes sense. Thanks for showing us this buckle- I had no idea these types of webbed luftwaffe buckles even existed!
