Thank you for the info. Are they pretty common from this maker?

[musketeer]

Yes indeed they are.

But I've never seen a fake buckle with this maker's mark.

The buckle should be like this one I have enclosed for reference

Thank you for taking the time to help the FNG. Here are the pics of my Heer buckle, that my dad bought in a box of keys at a auction.
