Default Now this is a must have

Not a bad price for a mutilated belt buckle! And it must be OK as he has 100% feedback.

Enjoy

Looks to be of exceedingly high quality. I certainly would very much like to own this.

For anyone interested in Turkish militaria. This web site is a truly amazing achievement.

Eddie are you able to positively identify this buckle, or is Turkish insignia not of interest to you?

There seems to be lots of confusion amongst those who concentrate on collecting British insignia what is in fact Egyptian insignia and not Turkish. e.g. tunic buttons.

No I can't ID it positively, and I agree that i'd be happy to have it in my collection but not for 6,000 bucks!

With three stars could it actually be Egyptian?
