A fine example of a third reich period belt buckle, complete with clasps, for a Reichsforstbeamter; constructed of fire gilt bronze; a round buckle, with a Prussian-style eagle on a raised pebbled field wielding a sword in one claw, and lightning bolts in the other within a thick laurel wreath with berries and a ribbon at the six o’clock position; the reverse hollow; an unmarked example; measuring 46 mm in diameter; with approximately 80% of its original gilt finish remaining; in overall very fine condition.
