M1895 Prussian EM/NCO'S Belt and Belt Buckle (Koppelschloss)
First introduced in 1847, the design of the buckle remained virtually unchanged until 1918.
After January of 1915, these buckles, which were also used by the Prussian-dominated states of Baden, Oldenburg, Hansa and Thuringia, were made of zinc-plated sheet iron.
Originally the box buckles came in a 50mm, (roughly 2 inches), width until 1895 when the width was reduced to 45mm, (roughly 1 3/4 inches), in an attempt to lighten the weight load of the field gear. Initially the buckles were produced of brass with a nickel/silver face plate until 1914 when steel construction buckles were introduced.

1895 pattern, two-piece brass and nickel/silver construction Prussian belt buckle. The 60mm, slightly convex, stamped non-magnetic box buckle, features, against its plain, obverse field, a crown to its domed center, encompassed by a dual rope-like border within which, against a ribbed background, is "Gott Mit Uns" (God is With Us), and a spray of laurels.
Complete with original leather belt.

Imperial German Drum Hanger (Trommelschere)
A cast brass drum hanger roughly 70mm at widest point, and 135mm tall, hung from its brown leather belt loop (68mm) from a swiveling brass mount.
The hanger itself is in the from of a right-facing crowned eagle perched on a horizontal bar from which descend the two hooks for the drum.
An unmarked example.
