Do you have more and better pictures?
It looks like a Hobacher but wait for more inputs

Thanks Andy
I’ll have better pictures as soon as it arrives.
The plate is missing so I got it for 75.00

Hi Peter,
As Andy has said, this is an original clasp by Wilhelm Hobacher. Too bad its missing its original backplate, but certainly worth it at that price of $75. Still some decent bronze finish remaining on this one too. Hobachers are quite uncommon clasps to find, I just picked one up myself at the SOS 2 weeks ago.
TomIf it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a littleNew Book - The German Close Combat Clasp of World War II

Very nice Andy and thank you for confirmation and new information on the scarcity of the maker.
I was happy to have so much finish left and pay that price.
I’ve squirreled it to a dark place to preserve what beauty remains.Comment
