This Sword Belt is of red webbing trimmed in brown leather. I am not sure what particular branch of service wore this belt, but perhaps it is red to denote an Artillery Officer.

It is interesting to note that the inside of the belt has an eight inch long leather trim strap, the purpose of which eludes me.

The belt is equipped with a stationary sword clip constructed out of brass and has a closed double opening. The buckle is a good brass example, and the leather tab is in good condition.

B&B #37038 Mining Official's Brown Belt with Extra Large Brass Buckle

This brown belt is still in fine condition throughout, and I do not see any markings on it.

The buckle is most unusual in that it is about 1/3 again as large as a normal buckle. It is constructed with a fine brass base with an applied set of mining hammers in the center. This is the first time I have seen a belt buckle like this one. The catch on leather belt is also of matching brass.

This, I believe, is quite a rare item and is certainly impressive.

B&B #28149 American Naval Belt Buckle and Sword Hanger Eyelets

This buckle and belt assembly appears to be of American Naval vintage, but I am not totally sure of this. The belt is a dark brown example, having dual rows of stitching in the center for strength. The belt has flaps that protect the uniform from brass eyelets made to carry the sword. There are two eyelets, one having a hook for regain wear of the sword.

The brass buckle is of round design, having overlapping oak leaves running throughout its border. At every quadrant there are crossed ribbons. There is a raised out area in the center, bordered by a rope design. The center area appears to show an American eagle holding an anchor in its talons. There are no markings on the belt or buckle.

A great rigging here if you have an early American Naval sword. The belt looks like it comes from maybe about 1900.

This aluminum buckle has a pebbled finish and it is the style that was painted an olive drab color. About 10% - 15% of the original olive drab paint is still in the recesses throughout the buckle’s surfaces. On the reverse, there is much more paint – probably about 50%.

This buckle shows some wear across the surfaces, which are pebbled. It features the two circles of rope motif fluted at the upper area and at the lower area features a wreath of oak leaves. The upper area has the raised out army motto “Gott Mit Uns”. In the center is a vaulted Wehrmacht eagle. The eagle faces to the viewer’s right and clutches a swastika in his talons. There is wear to the bird’s head, breast feathering and also slightly to the wings and some wear to the swastika, but it is still all there.

B&B #30731 Army Enlisted Man's Buckle with Leather Tab

This rectangular shaped steel buckle still has much of the original green paint on the finish. It appears to be at about 70-75% on the obverse and about 85-90% on the reverse. The buckle has the usual circular rope pressed out designs which trap a wreath of oak leaves at the bottom half of the circle and at the top has the raised out motto, “Gott Mit Uns”. In the center there is a raised out Wehrmacht half closed winged eagle which faces to the viewer’s right. The eagle grasps a mobile swastika in its talons. There is good detail remaining throughout this bird.

The reverse of the buckle if you look very closely has the maker marking appearing to be “IKA40”. Attached to the buckle is the original leather tab. This tab shows age and usage but it is still in good condition.

A fine, “talks to you” relic here.

B&B #30609C Army Belt Buckle

This enlisted man’s aluminum buckle is made of two piece construction.

The rectangular shape has the standard pebbled finish. The two roped lines are part of a separate piece which is held to the buckle base by a set of four tabs. The ropes contain an oak leaf and acorn wreath at the bottom and the top is the slogan, “Gott Mit Uns”. In the center is a Wehrmacht style eagle which looks to the viewer’s right. The bird shows only a little mild wear on the breast feathering but the rest is still in pretty good shape. There is a small pressed in area directly in the center but this could be fixed if someone wanted to take off the tabs and push it out again. It is not bad.

This type of buckle is a little harder to find than the other varieties.
