SS STEEL BELT BUCKLE FOR EM/NCO 155/40

SOLD!

Very nice SS steel belt buckle made by Assmann.

Buckle is stamped steel, standard pattern. The obverse of the buckle features a smooth outer field with a high relief, embossed central motif consisting of an SS style national eagle with out-stretched wings, clutching a wreath encompassing a static swastika. The swastika and wreath are in turn encompassed by a circular simulated twisted rope border with Gothic script motto, "Meine Ehre heißt Treue!", (My Honour is Loyalty!). The script is situated on a subtly textured background field and is encircled by the inner and an outer simulated twisted rope borders. The reverse of the buckle is a mirror image of the obverse and has the brazed buckle catch, prong bar and prongs all intact.

Front side was polished. Back side not where silver finish is almost complete. Maker mark SS 155/40 RZM (for the well known Assmann firm) is still visible under the prongs. 40 is the year of production.

A nice Assmann SS belt buckle.
