Falange metal buckle part

[benten]

This is my first one. The material is chromed (?) copper. What period is this buckle part?

Is this a rare item and what could be the value?

Thanks in advance.

IMHO It seems to me as pefectly possible real Falange party Buckle, ranging from 1936-27 to late 1960?s, so many differente finishes are possibles, but ever is in silver/ed.

I would prefer see the reverse if possible

Thanks

Hello Miguel,

I post a detail of the front and of the reverse . Do you mean that the first belts ( ca. 1936 )were in a kind of silver finish? Hope you can determine what date this belt is.

Thank you in advance .

Here is the reverse..........

smooth finish

Franco?s Bodyguard (Gilded with three stars...) Gala falange?s Chiefs

Smooth finish

I was saying that the finish I?m always seen is in silver. or silvered metal, sometimes , but rarer are gilded.

I think the first issues are in smooth finish not "peebled" as this one... But I don?t know if this is enough for dating the item. I?m in my Job and I don?t have more sources to consult.

Do you can find a lot of models with a price between 15 USD and 300 USD, in specialised shops...(there are plenty of them in the late 70?s when the regime changed to Parlamentarydemocracy).

Miguel thanks for your interesting pictures and information. You really have very nice buckles. The bodygard buckle of Franco will be the most rare I think.

Yes , They are re not in my field of interest, and are some samples at a commercial site...

The Franco?s boduguard buckle can be yours for 200?, if you want it at a commercial site named: www.todocomercio.com I?m afraid that this is all in Spanish language
