Hello all,
I am not a buckle collector but bought about 45 WWI buckles from a friend who purchased an unopened crate; these were his last remaining stock. He had sold most of the buckles to dealers; and a few of these are still seen on dealer's websites.
I sold several over the past 2 years and every buyer was happy. Lately I have have received questions from potential buyers about their originality.
I saw them in their undisturbed original tissue wrapping paper, and the folds, age, fragility, etc.. made it perfectly clear that they had been wrapped in a factory many, many years ago.
What are the opinions of the experts?
Thanks,
Harvey
