Excellent. Stunning buckle, condition is amazing. Has been cleaned in water only, there are still spots of dirt around the embossing. The central insert has no lugs poking through, this has been glued into place to stop it from falling off. The outer band with writing is still connected with lugs, but may have had some glue applied to prevent it from coming off in the future. Plenty of gold plating evident underneath, the top side has only small spots remaining. Still has the belt clips in place. Some spots of stain to the front. A superb buckle, this is quite solid and heavy as well with pretty much no bends to the edge, which is a rarity. Grade: 8.3 Estimate: $100 - 125
