Title Weimar Army belt buckle
Nationality German
Period c 1930
Sold

It was worn from about 1927 to the early years of WW2, when it was replaced by the 1936 model of the Third Reich, although they did go on making them after 1936 as I have seen one with the leather Wiederhalt stamped 1938.

A clean example with traces of silver-grey wash to the finish; two-piece construction from die-struck nickel silver.

[Belt Buckles : German : 20th Century]

testimonials

My order arrived this morning, thanks for the prompt delivery.

Two excellent original pieces, I must say.

Buckle is in minty condition retaining so much detail esp plummage on eagle's neck and chest, like to see those 'creases' on the legs also... a beautiful example of an early O&C buckle.

Belt is very interesting, rather thin, CROUPON stamped and also behind the tongue...maybe Allegmeine but no SS markings as you state. Beautiful piece none the less.

Thanks for a speedy transaction Chris, I am very happy with my purchase :)
