The first 822/38 marked buckle on post #4 is a reproduction, imo. The rest of the buckles are real, imo.
The metal skull is a reproduction. Can't comment on the collar tab or the belt, sorry.
I'm sure that there are others who can help you with those items though.

The two steel and nickle silver buckle are real for sure. No idea about aluminiu.

Hello Chris,

Can you please tell me why the first 822/38 is a reproduction. I have 2 that are marked 822/38 and the one thing I notice it the markings are different. One is sharper and the other fatter or squished from use?

The skull is 100% fake? Many thanks!

Hi,

Many areas, especially the front details and the markings appear cast, imo. I can see lots of pitting all over the surface. You probably could get more opinions on the buckle forum if you want.

Colleagues buckle 822/38 the fine print of the land here small pits on it.its already been discussed I'm tired of proving to do you not see? Compare the head of an eagle she got this order is different from the rest 822/38 they are not tampered with while fakes I have ever no seen.Skull in zinc-topped Kupaly work overhoff.///

I'm not ashamed to say this buckle was mine.But gentlemen, let's go to the other side show the same fake order 822/38 with small fonts and the differences between the eagle head and the issue is closed.I understand many of you could not see the items found in Konigsberg Demiansk the VolkhovThe problem only is that the buckle has a porosity of around hallmarks.

Hi, can you please measure the buckle, I believe the cast copy is slightly smaller. BTW no one is attacking you or the buckle.
