Funny, I was looking at their site today but couldn't see the ones posted on this thread

I thought it was an aluminum 167, but I wasn't sure because of
all the corrosion and also, the pictures aren't of the best quality either.
Anyway, "M1/167" is correct, even if the "7" is not visible,
(which is very possible).
I strongly think that all of the pieces here are ground dug originals,
but I would of course, have to see much more to be able to say, 100%.

Best, Chris

Today I got the skull and eagle! The skull is a M1/52 (zinc or Kriegsmetall) and the eagle is an aluminium M1/167.

Very nice condition for ground dug items, congrats!

[GrenadierKarl]

I want to buy some other items (buckles) from the same seller and I need some opinions again. Thanks in advance!

[GrenadierKarl]

I think the buckles are ok.....or not?

[GrenadierKarl]

A collector from Germany wants to sell this stuff (sorry, he is not owner of a website). All of his items were ground dugs and original items in the past.

Karl can u post close ups of the buckles?how much u ask?maybe u shud post them on the buckles forum

Buckles aren't my area of interest BUT may I ask why the manufacturer of both the bottom 2 buckes (being Hersteller 822) appears to have used different font sizes in the same year (1938) ? Surely a stamp wouldn't wear out that quickly ?

Cheers,Ian.

Ian,
I think there are 3 different font sizes for that year, rather than the stampings wearing out I would think there were 3 sets made, but JPR is the man to ask as this is his field

[Ian Hulley]

Thanks for that Gary, I guess buckles are different from metal cap sets where the same dies were used for years, even with faults and wear.

Cheers,Ian.
