H090759 EM/NCO'S BELT BUCKLE.
(Koppelschloß)BACKGROUND: On January 24TH 1936 a new pattern EM/NCO’s belt buckle was officially introduced to replace the previously worn Weimar era Reichsheer buckle. The basic design of the Reichsheer buckle was retained with the addition of the new Wehrmacht style national eagle. This pattern buckle was worn through-out the Third Reich period with minor manufacturing variations.

Buckle features a smooth outer field with central, high relief, embossed Wehrmacht eagle with down swept wings to slightly domed center, encompassed by an oak-leaf cluster to bottom and script, "Gott mit Uns", (God with us), to top. Oak-leaf cluster and script are on a ribbed background and encircled by an inner and outer simulated twisted rope border. Buckle retains about 94% of its original field-grey paint. Reverse of buckle is a mirror image of obverse. Reverse with "crank style" buckle catch, prong bar and prongs all intact. Maker marked to Herman Aurich and dated 42. Scarce.
