    Bad news Alex!! Buckle Nr. 2 and 5 are for sure fakes. I'm not a expert for SS leaders, but I have a really bad feeling about the leader too!

    Sorry that I can't say something better...

      Hi Alex number two is what I call a pigeon head fake, look at the eagles head it looks more like a pigeon than an eagle, the SS Mann Number 5 & SS Officers number 6 are also fake. I am having a good close look at the rest before I comment on them

              Hi Alex, in my opinion no 1 the Heer CTD buckle is ok. Here is mine for comparison.

                  On the others Alex, I would say the Luftewaffe is ok, the HJ buckle I think is ok but I am not sure about the paper tag, the Police buckle for some reason I do not like. The makers mark does not seem right to me but i am no expert. I am sure other guys with much more knowledge than me will see you right

                    Hi Alex,

                    I agree with the guys : number 2 - 5 - 6 are well known fake

                    Other buckles are original

                    Regards

                        Mythoughts exactly....that HJ tag looks like it was just printed - in fact the buckle looks almost brand new!! Mint?
                        LW is good as it the first Heer.

                          An interesting selection of buckles and I tend to agree with all that has been already said.

                          The "Kremp" HJ though is a stunner. These same buckles were in circulation a few years ago, although I assume that most have now been absorbed into private collections. Mint, unused and almost too good to be true, although they are in my opinion quite original. All with the F code tax label and from memory, all with a production numbering of between 103 thousand and 104 thousand.

                          The Overhoff logo on the SchuPo buckle does appear a tad odd, although perhaps not so when compared to the logo on the preceding buckle. Alex - any possibility of images toward the Overhoff stampings on the leather tongue?

                          Regards,

                          David

                            Both SS, (EM and leader) are fake as well as the OLC army.
