Douglas Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) Early nickel Postschutz (Postal Protection Service). The Postal Protection Service which was introduced in 1933, wore a standard box buckle with a stylized eagle bearing the German Postal horn and with the wording "postschutz" in script below. The field is pebbled and the buckle was initially produced in nickel or nickel plated brass. No maker mark.

Desert Rat Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Hello Doug, Lovely Buckle, many thanks for showing us on MCN. Look forward to seeing more of your collection. Best to you.....Desert Rat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lach470 Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) These buckles are seriously underrated. Much more rare than SS buckles, these are not that easy to find. I passed up on an alum. example a few years ago and regret it. I have only one nickel example in my collection that is very much like the above shown example - probably a different maker though given details like the adler's tongue being different. Adding pics for the sake of comparison. Cheers guys! Rob Edited August 27, 2019 by lach470 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
