    Default Old German Reich padlock for sale

    A padlock from the era of the German Reich. Probably from around 1900 marked with D.R.G.M. 27165. D.R.G.M. means "Deutsches Reichs Gebrauchs Muster" - which was the smaller brother of the D.R.P. "Deutsches Reichs Patent" and only lasted for ten years. (In use from 1891 until 1945) I was not able to look this patent up but a German collector told me they would be called "Patent Steinke" Padlocks. He also told me that there would be two versions of it. One of them only locking up the hinge side of the shackle and another locking both sides up.

    It comes with one key and works perfectly.
    Shipping with tracking number would probably be 5.50 € and another 1.50 € if you wanne have it insured.

    Offers welcome!

    I decided to put this padlock out on an auction at another forum. 20 percent of the price will be a contribution to the forum there. If you are interested just let me know I will send you a link then. I was not sure if I am allowed to post a link here so I didn't do it.
