Unknown (Miniature) Belt Buckle - Third Reich Era - Salesman’s Sample or Child’s Play Uniform

Hello All,

Attached are photos of an unknown belt buckle of Third Reich design. It’s been a real mystery.

Authenticity = Unknown, but all indications that it is a genuine Third Reich era manufactured belt buckle

Date of Mfr. = Unknown, but I think pre-war

Quality of Mfr. = High, 5A1

Size = 1/4 the size of a standard 3rd Reich belt buckle
(Size leads me to believe this is either a salesman’s sample or for a child’s play uniform)

Markings = None
(If for a child’s play uniform, then produced by civilian/non-war effort factory/production = no markings needed)

Design = SA
(I think)

Condition = Great, 5A1

Thanks for your help!
