thanks

Hello!

I’ve found a gentleman who has an MG-34 Ammunition drum. He picked it up from an antique shop in Tallinn, Estonia and wants to sell it for 150 USD. It is marked "WC 43".

I wanted to verify it’s authenticity before buying and ask if this is a fair price - It seems a bit steep to me!

Hi, guys. My friend was interested in purchasing this luft buckle and asked me for some help with it. I don't know hardly anything yet about luft buckles but I'm pretty certain it is original and looks like it has a fair amount of paint left on it. It's unmarked, though, and we were hoping to be able to identify the maker and place the buckle as far as if it's commonplace or a more scarce piece. I know there are many eagle variations with luft buckles, but I thought the style/design of this particular eagle's head might ring a bell with someone.

Thanks for any help cool militaria
Best,
Adam

Hi, all. I just saw this latest EK2. I looks good to me and to be in nice condition. The only odd thing I noticed is that the "1" in 1813 seems a bit obscured and shifted to the left...kind of as thought the core is a bit off center? The price is also a bit high at $145 I thought. Curious what you guys think...anyone have any thoughts on the cross and/or the maker "93" for Richard Simm & Sohne Gablonz a.d.N.?

Thanks for any info or comments :)
-Adam

Hi, all. I just came across this interesting piece and wanted some feedback and opinions on it. As you can see it's a steel-based 1939 WB that the seller claims is a factory conversion to silver grade by over-spraying excess black-grade wound badges. The seller claims you will also encounter wound badges by this maker (Overhoff und Cie) over-sprayed in a gold color.
I have heard of some people receiving these types of wound badges from vets but I've also heard that some collectors believe that the excess stock was over-sprayed postwar.
Anyone have any info or opinion on this and similar pieces? It's going for $45 which is about a fair price for a black grade I would think.

Thanks for any help!
Best to all,
Adam

Hey, guys. I just saw this injected molded aluminum buckle and was curious to get a quick survey of what you all thought. As you can see, the buckle is marked M4/46 for M4/46 Wilhelm Schroder & Co., Lüdenscheid and is in pretty good condition, I think. The seller is claiming that injected molded aluminum HJs are a lot less common, making up maybe 5-10 out of every 100 aluminum HJs you see. From what I know, this seller seems pretty knowledgable but I just wanted to check if this is accurate.
I don’t yet know a lot about aluminum HJs and was just curious what you all thought of this and for $75. Also, anyone know where this type of aluminum HJ falls on the timeline…an earlier or later piece?

Thanks, all
Best,
Adam

Here are 4 Navy daggers for comment/critique.

After a few years to mull over them, I think there may be a lot wrong with
most. Three are maker marked, and one looks like the name has been
ground off. One also has a 'Battleship Blade' which I am lead
to believe is a fake..........
