Kriegsmarine buttons ?

[Snoopy]

Hi

I need help with some buttons, that I found at a flea market today. The seller believed that they where fairly new, but I noticed the markings on the reverse, and what appears to be a year of manufacture. I don't know a lot about buttons, but I took a chance, since they cost allmost nothing. The buttons are silver in colour, and not gold. I would appreciate any help.

All the best

Are they Feldgrau painted? Definitely (19)41. Looks like naval land forces PAINT finish to me.

They look more like silver, or unpainted metal. Could they belong to a Kriegsmarine beamter tunic?

Snoopy,

Definitely WWII Kriegsmarine buttons. Seems to the KM beamter had silver buttons. I'll check my reference material tonight.

Snoopy,

Sorry but I was not able to find time to look in my reference material for info on these buttons. We have just moved and I am still unpacking boxes. Also left home yesterday to spend a couple of weeks in Canada with our daughter before returning to Budapest by way of two weeks in Italy. I'll try and remember to look when I get home. Might take a few days as we still did not have an internet connection before we left.

Regards,

Gordon
