Hello Piotr,

IMO the box is a well known original one, referring to the roundel I've seen many SA original less detailed : just my 2 cents.

hello Ric

It is ground dug example so we can say roundel details are bad because lying in the ground, writing "suspisious" I mean that connection box+roundel - I havent seen two piece NSFK belt buckles .. that is interesting.

Piotr,

in such case I guess the buckle is original, I too have not seen before that variant. Is the post prongs assembly replaced ?

It is an interesting hybrid buckle, however I would not be too inclined to attach a NSFK label to it. The buckle does appear to have been excavated and I too think that the post, post shroud and claw arrangement is not period to the buckle.

Attached are images of an NSBO which enjoys the same pebbled and dull nickle silver box. In addition, attached are images of a brace of SA's with the same roundel design.

Regards,

David

hello all

hello

As I write in last post I have bought that starnge buckle - and now it is time for conclusion;

As You can see at photos the buckle is ground dug example, the roll bar is not original and was add by previous owner. The face plate has been reattached.

I have found in Anolia book similar buckle (site 173) but with sunwheel swastkia.

What do You think guys ? Take a look at new photos .

best regards
Piotr
