Saw this one on eBay and triple checked to make sure I wasn’t missing something obvious. Seller listed it as matching, which it was. They thought the Kriegsmarine marking on the bayonet was a reissue number. Picked up this all matching gem for way under where it should have been.

Please could You provide the letter under serial number? the KM serialing on crossguard was done by engraving with rotating dremel on pantograpf, and is little heavy made, but should be correct.Best way compare with similar type marking of same range. b.r.Andy

Very nice set. The Paul Weyersberg bayo looks to have really nice blue and that Graf frog is a nice compliment. Care to share how much you paid for the set?

Sorry for the delayed response. Here is a picture of the serial letter suffix. Also I snagged it for $250.

I saw this one on ebay and noticed that they did not know what they had. I was going to post it here but forgot. Glad that some one from here got it, great score and price.

Thanks guys. I reached out to the seller and told them it was too bad they didn’t have a buy it now as I would hit it. They told me they would do it and there you have it. I was very lucky that no one had bid on it.

The fleet number is a new report. I have another 39 Wetersberg g block recorded.

After I knock out my list of chores for the day, I will snap some nice natural light pictures of the rig.

Good to hear that! I think you got a very good deal at that price point. Pieces like this are not seen very often. Please do share some more photos.

The pics come out sideways because you are on the east coast, if you were south of the equator they come out upside down. European posters photos come out right side up but flipped backwards for some reason, it has something to do with the polar ice caps melting and a potential pole shift, that or planetary gravitational pull with the moon and sun.
