I've picked up a lot of photos in the last 35 years, so I arranged the belt buckle info I have using John Angolia's book and stuck it in the Reference Library. Let me know if I've missed anything

Wonderful Vern!
Jean Pierre also had a FANTASTIC collection of photos that compared original and reproduction SS buckles. It was great for spot comparison and answering the old "is this original?" questions! It would really be a boon if we had the same here!
Just a thought, as he is the moderator for this forum.
MERYY CHRISTMAS!

My understanding is that 4 tabs or 2 solder points is an original, 3 solder points is a fake Here's a shot of a later pebbled Kreigsmarine EM buckle.
