This is a very unusual - and I deem simply never used- nor worn! - example of a 'standard-issued'-pattern, and typical aluminium-based WH-related belt-buckle (ie. 'Koppelschloss für Mannschaften u. Unteroffiziere') that is totally void of a centre-illustration but that shows the motto: 'Gott mit Uns' being neatly maker- (ie. 'F.L.L.'-) marked example that comes in a simply never used- (ie. 'virtually mint- ie. unissued', condition as can be seen on the pictures). The buckle - which shows a superimposed makers'-designation ie. 'F.L.L.'-logo on its back as more often and that is thus produced by the company: 'Friedrich Linden' as was based in the town of Lüdenscheid - truly retains most (ie. all!) of its silver-greyish finish and just shows some minimal age and/or staining simply caused by having been stored as such for decades. The fully untouched- and totally un-cleaned piece is made-out of typical 'molded aluminium' and is of a: 'single-pieced-construction'; it is truly very nicely executed (as can be seen on the pictures). The exeact purpose for this particular belt-buckles is still unknown today: there is an ongoing discussion that these buckles were specifically produced for the members of the so-called: 'WH-Strafbataillione' whereas other sources state that these were produced after 1945 and were intended for police- and/or guard-units. The neat buckle on offer here orginates from an older belt-buckle-collection that was compiled over several years and that I recently acquired for the web-site. I deem that I have priced this superb - and simply never used nor worn! - 'Koppelschloss für Mannschaften u. Unteroffiziere', accordingly!
