James,

you are indeed right, since such fake is made by a new die totally wrong and never existed during the war.

I take my hat off to you Ric awards i can fathom to a certain degree and if im stumped i can hit the books for the info required but put a buckle in front of me and it may as well be a set of chinese instructions for a nuclear power plant i like buckles they just make no sense to me. I have only been tempted to buy two the SS (just on the strength of its look and the source it came from) and a luftwaffe from Detlev N i think i might stick to awards and let you guys keep doing the good work on buckles as its something im not affraid to say im useless at.
Once again cheers for all your help

Coo Coo, another Pigeon head shot from the skies. I always call these buckles Pigeon heads. look at the eagles head, it looks like a pigeon not an eagle

Even with my incredibly limited knowledge on buckles i thought that pigeon looked pantaloons another genuine vet bring back from hong kong
