    WW1 Prussian steel belt buckle - it it original?

    I picked it up over 40 years ago at a gunshow, for the princely sum of $5. So if it isn't an original, I didn't lose anything on the deal. If it is an original, I'll display it with other Imperial German and Austrian items I've collected over the years. If it's a reproduction/fake, I'll...

    Here is my small collection of Imperial Austrian medals. I'm thinking of assembling a little display with these and Imperial German medals arranged around an Imperial Austrian Eagle wappen plate I posted up in another section of this site. Any information on these would be appreciated I...

    Austrian Wappen

    Something I acquired many years ago. About 3 1/2 inches high and 3 inches wide. I'll probably use it as the centerpiece of a little display of Imperial German and Austrian medals. What type of headgear or other item would this have originally been used on?

    WW1 era Prussian spiked helmet, dated 1907 (SOLD)

    I picked this up at an Antique, Militaria, and Collector's show in Munich, Germany, in 1971. Other than as noted (sadly) below, it is exactly as I got it. Marked on the inside with various ink stamps including 1907 dated one, and a stamped in the leather marking with what looks like B.J.A...

    Help needed identifying old saber scabbards

    These are some things I picked up long ago in case I ever encountered a saber in need of a scabbard that one of these fit and was correct for. I'm pretty sure the top one is Imperial German, it is about identical to the one on an Imperial German saber I have. The middle one I believe is for...

    Sword Collection: Austro-Hungarian saber $200 and Kinder Sabel (Child's saber) $120, WW1 German saber $140, more will be added shortly

    THE KINDER SABEL: This is something I picked up at an antique and collector's market in Munich, Germany, in the winter of 1995. It appealed to my love of historical militaria and antique toys, and military themed antique toys. But I'm downsizing my collection of things I've acquired (some...

    Information sought on Solingen and Budapest marked sabre.

    I picked this one up back in the early 1980's, don't remember exactly where. I do not have the scabbard for it. The miniature "Kinder Sabel" child's version shown in the photo with it, I picked at an antique and collector's market in Munich, Germany, in the winter of 1995. The little child...

    Kinder Sabel and comparison with full size one. Information, comments, value estimates sought.

    I picked the Kinder Sabel up at an antique faire in Munich, Germany, in the winter of 1995. The full size one is something I picked up, I no longer recall exactly where, back in the 1980's. The little child sword is definitely patterned after the design of the real sword, which seems to...
