Romanian HJ buckle

[arbuz]

Straja Ţării (Romanian - roughly, The Sentinel of the Motherland; also known as Străjeria - translatable as The Sentinel) was a paramilitary youth organization in the Kingdom of Romania, created in 1935 by King Carol II to counter the growing influence the Iron Guard had over the youth of Romania. Its members were known as străjeri ("sentinels"), and used a form of the Roman salute as greeting.

Wow. Love it. What are they worth and how many exist today do you reckon? Lots must have been lost when Romania broke off from the Axis.

You won't find these buckles even here in Ukraine, though we are the neibours with Romania. The prices are variable, starting from 100$.
Best wishes,
Ilija
