    Hello,
    Although i'm not specialized on buckles, i can say you own buckles from :
    1) Hitlerjugend = HJ
    2) Polizei
    3) Sturmabteilung = SA
    4) Luftwaffe
    5) Deutsches Rot Kreuz = DRK
    6) WWI prussian
    I hope it's correct....but maybe by "IDs", you mean makers ?...if yes...i can't help you here...Ben will be better to play this game...
    Thanks

    No.....usually the dress versions were also in alum but were manufactured in two pieces - with the roundel affixed to the box of the buckle using four tabs. Dress versions weren't brass - the brass was just another type of buckle used mostly in ww1, by para-military orgs like Der Stahlhelm and also by the SA.

    Cheers!
