    Is that brass or steel?

      Yes, it looks like steel but it is brass. It was nearly 100 years in ground.

        I can't believe nobody owns another nice Imperial buckle in his collection....

          Here is one of mine that I think is interesting because the original paint is black, not feldgrau. It's a Bavarian M16 with original leather tab.

            Here is another interesting wartime phenomenon....feldgrau baked-on paint over a brass buckle.

              The Prussia buckle is nice . The phenomenon of unusual painted buckles was to find in ww2 too. I've seen a lot of pre war buckles that got feldgrau paint (and other colours) and they were used during the war.

                  A similar buckle like the one in #6 but from Bavaria.

                    Chip, your Saxon buckle makes me green with envy. Beautiful.

                      Jesse,

                      The Saxon buckles with the regimental markings are getting quite expensive. I got this one many years ago (for $28.00)

                      Here' my M15 Hessian.
