3rd Reich FAD tombak buckle. Very good condition Freiwillige Arbeitsdienst belt buckle. Ges.Gesch marked. We don't know why this kind of metal is wrongly called as a "nickel". Nickel is a very hard and shiny metal, which is too hard to us in die stamping. The metal used to make this buckle is a tombak alloy (about 10 %). "Tombak" is in German language and we prefer to use this correct name in our descriptions.
