SS Buckle 155/40 ?????

[JimM]

Saw a "SS" buckle recently, marked RZM 155/40 and SS in two circles. Looked okay to me, but l am really new in buckles. Seems like l read a post recently that said something like all buckles marked SS in circles are bad. ls that true or does this sound like a good one ?
Thanks,

Thanks Sscrooge, but Aljaffe had already entered a pic of it and it was bad. Seller claims he sold it right away. We'll see.

Thanks 'schorschi', l am an amateur and didn't realize the 155/36 fake was the same maker as 155/40. Didn't know the second number (40) meant the year. l had seen that fake on the database. Guess us 'newbys' cause some trouble, but gotta learn.
