Mecklenburg Belt Buckle

An original example of a rare Mecklenburg belt buckle, M.95. This example has been somewhat corroded due to bad storage over the years, slightly cleaned, some staining and scratches, minor suface verdigris in smaller patches to rear. No makers mark, which was usually on the leather tab, which is no longer present. This pattern was worn by non-mounted troops of the state of Mecklenburg-Schwerin.
Mecklenburg-Strelitz had a different pattern without the star underlying the emblem, which was slightly larger. This pattern of buckle was worn by Grenadier-Regt.89 I./III. Btls., Füsilier-Regt.90, Jäger-Btl.14 and Feld-Art.-Regt.60. These buckles are now quite rare.
Photo is not too good.
