B-136 Unissued Late-War Hitler Jugend Koppelschloß (Buckle) in Zinc
Alloy (Pot Metal), with Issue Tag
Very impressive Hitler Youth buckle in zinc alloy base
metal. The original matte aluminum wash finish is mostly gone – though a trace
remains for a hint of silver. The stamped roundel with motto, HJ eagle and
diamond insignia is outstanding – still quite crisp. The reverse is also mint
and clean. It has the molded-in form of belt hook catch bar that is an integral
part of the buckle. The buckle reverse is marked along the edge lip with a RZM
mark and the makers code M4 / 27. The roller bar ( with prongs) moves freely. The
bar has a matte silver finish. Affixed to it is a looped original RZM card paper
tag, marked in red ink with the HJ diamond “Koppelschloß nach Vorschrift der
RJF” (RJF = Reichsjugendführer – Reichs Youth Leader). The manufacturer
code on the tag matches the buckle. The tag is in superb condition. A fine
addition to any collection!
