1941 Heer Belt & Buckle - Real?

[SpartanX9]

Hello All! I am interested in purchasing this buckle from an online dealer, but want to get some second opinions on authenticity. After reviewing several threads on this form for buckle identification as well as a reference book I have, I believe the buckle and belt to be authentic. That being said, is this Heer EM/NCO belt and buckle original? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!












P.S. Maybe I missed it, in the threads on this form, but are there any particular makers which are faked often?

Hello,
This is original set. Buckle is maker Noelle & Hueck, Lüdenscheid

Hello Ben, I looked through the main thread you have on identifying German belt buckles, great thread by the way. However, I do not think this was included, but are there specific manufacturers that are faked more often than others?

Post #21 in the Heer Makers thread has an N&H example like yours:
