    I wish you good luck. In all the years of collecting buckles, I have only once seen one of these very rare and grossly under rated buckles.

    Regards,

    As everyone has stated a VERY, VERy rare buckle. I have never encountered one in all my years of collecting. The "VDA" buckles are hard enough to find _fortunately I have both patterns of those buckles - but this one ! all i can say is good luck.

    A pleasant surprise to see this decade old thread having been successfully revived by the showing of an extremely rare buckle. Thankyou and congratulations to Forum Member “Waldmann”.

    The opening post was supported by showing an extract from the reference work “Deutsche Koppelschößer 1800 to1945” by Jürgen Bandau. This book was published in 1990 by Militair-Verlag Klaus D Patzwall and the subject buckle is featured on page 59.

    The buckle is detailed as one attributed to the Deutsche Handlungsgehilfenverband, however I think that the organisation is more commonly referred to as the Deutschnationale Handlungsgehilfen Verband. The DHV apparently experienced many changes during their existence which incidentally spanned from the very late 19th century through to the 1930’s when “absorbed” within the DAF (Deutsche Arbeitsfront). Perhaps the changes included their name at some point, however I simply do not know. As a minor side note, this extremely interesting organisation which in overly simplistic terms, was essentially a fiercely conservative “white collar” workers union for those employed within the commercial sector. The Weimar period history of the organisation makes interesting reading and especially their support of the Deutschnationale Volkspartei (DNVP) and by default, the Alldeutscher Verband.

    The description of the buckle in “Deutsche Koppelschößer 1800 to1945” makes reference to it being worn around 1930 and the physical description includes that as die stamped nickle alloy with a grey pebbled finish. There is also a brief topographic overview towards the key years for the organisation, detailing inception and consolidation dates, together with their demise when and as the leading member of the Gewerkschaftsbund Deutscher Angestelltenverbände (General Association of German Employees Unions), they were and in name only, integrated within the NSDAP.

    The physical description of the buckle is accurate, however as for the sparse supporting information and dates, perhaps less so.

    The DHV buckle shown is and in my opinion extremely rare, albeit somewhat specialised and with an understandable limited appeal to perhaps only a very small number of collectors.

    Regards and best wishes,

    David
