The buckle is OK with correct front finish
A large amount (I think some hundreds) of this HJ M4/55 unissued buckle was found years ago into a box in Austria... by WAF member Markus/Yellow12

Hi Pascal,
Thanks for bringing this up.

I know nothing about buckle, and i still have much to learn in this hobby.

I bought the buckle here on WAF years ago, and that's the condition when i got it.
With the tag and paper still intact i just thought that's how it supposed to be like out of the factory, hence the "real mint" title

Brus, Thanks for the info. With a little search i could find the hoard pic on other forum

I don't know if the previous owner clean the buckle with some chemical agent or not, but i just leave it as it is

I like this kind of pic !
