Very nice buckle Are the body & the roundel both magnetic?
Very nice buckle Are the body & the roundel both magnetic?
It looks like a classic pewter Saxon of 1915, no problems with it. Have a look back in the thread for mine. I've not seen a painted one before; but I'm sure it's original & logical they would do that. It may be a steel body with a pewter roundel. The pewter bodies were weak & the metal tore, so it seems they used up the roundels on steel bodies. Be interesting to see what its like when you get it.
Turns out the roundel is magnetic too, so its completely steel.
Shame, still rare buckle though
Roundel solder brass. I wonder why? I did replace the missing-catch,prongs, post sleeve
No idea why brass solder, unusual.
and even more than usual medallion seems to me.
This prong set-up was not used before 1916, so this can't be correct.

Yes this prong set-up was not used before 1916. I repeat the missing detail I made myself (catch,prongs,post sleeve).
