In stamped brass base with brass face plated affixed by two spot solders, early full oak leaf wreath with small helmet, measuring 60 x 48mm, worn, very fine. Similar to the buckle displayed on page 370 of Angolia's publication.
Footnote: From the collection of approximately 900 German buckles accumulated by John R. Angolia, who start collecting buckles, belts and brocades from 1944 until around 1990; most of the buckles were obtained from the American and German veterans; most of these buckles present a core of Angolia’s book “Belt Buckles & Brocades of the Third Reich”, published in 2001.
