Old Spanish Belt Buckles

[Chris Boonzaier]

I forgot I had these.... Found in Morocco... am not sure how old they are.... or what they are...

I have a similar buckle and original black leather belt to the one on the right. I'll dig it out and attempt to post some pictures,

It was bought from a local Army Surplus store in the early 70's, grey/green with mould and stiff as a board until I treated the leather.

I was told at the time that it was from Franco's forces during the Civil War, but I have no evidence to support this.

My first attempt at uploading images. The stamped mark on the back of the clasp seems to read

DERECEDA.
