My friend Garry has one of these in his collection. I will be going through his 2000 + buckles next month. I don't like the prongs on this example but David didn't indicate there is anything wrong with them.
Thank you, we will continue to wait....
I did not comment on the pin shroud and claw arrangement, as I thought that in doing so it would detract from what I consider to be a super and quite rare buckle.
The claws to the buckle which started the thread are aggressively raw to say the least. Unfortunately, jolly similar to what we have seen over the years on some fakes and in particular, bogus SA and Stahlhelmbund.
Attached is a reverse image of the same buckle that I still hold and without wishing to state the blindingly obvious, a totally different pin shroud and claw arrangement to that which again, started the thread.
Regards and best wishes,
David
Will certainly be interesting to see the prong setup and pin from the other two example referred to here, as the examples so far are very different.
