I saw the Kurassier on a Canadian antique store site listed for 1500 CD, but when i tried to inquire it disappeared. interesting to see it here.

I want purchase this. Please contact me.

I buy! How to do THIS?

Careful, looks to me as a modern copy. Are the leaves of the wreath painted or enamel?

The helmet body looks as if it has some funky repairs( bulge at the top of the back spine?) also a strange hole plug near the top of the crown?. With some of the other issues mentioned, You probably would not be happy in the long run. Worth maybe $800??

I have a nice line prussian frontplate 1842-53? I Need parts for a 1842 officer Kurassier- kleeblatts and schupenketten

Wonderful! incredible complete helmet setup. This is the best!

Very nice helmets. Well taken care of. nice to have two different examples. Thanks for sharing.

I was the second highest bidder, I believe it to be a 6K regiment. The owner was unable to give any more info on markings or a pic behind the frontplate. So to much of a risk. Could be a GDC? Looks as if was made into a lamp base at some piont. I have a guy who can take out the dents and...

Thank you for this. great start. informative.

Hello need some advice on how to restore the body of this 1843 officer Kurrasier. You can see that it is/was nickel plated and it’s badly rusted through. Previous owner sanded the body but not the visors. This incongruency leads me to think that it should be polished to match and to read it of...

Beautiful helmet. I have a 1842 Officer helmet that is nic-plated and compromised. Sold to me as steel but previous owner tried to remove on the bell but rusted through on the visor and tail. Any ideas on restoring the down to the steel?

Did not know this configuration even existed?!?! eBay item number: 324968574386

[-X The guy is posting and answering his own 'hype the item' type questions, declining big offers in one and now trying to deflect the fact it is a fake by suggesting it is a 'referb' uhg :army: :army:

Well I held back but am still following up on this one. I am like you poiatowski I see some sketchy elements and I need more info to get clear on its authenticity. Thank goodness for this forum to more insight and some reservation around 'deals'. Ron do you rebuild chinscales by chance?? Chris

Who does 'restorations' such as this? I have not seen metalhelm 'fixed' in such a way. Earlier(m1860) helmets might have a makers mark on the trim or not. Did the later (m1894) all have a inner crown makers mark/date? This bell does have some intriguing qualities I have not seen in repo's, I'm...

I'm suspect on several issues. The steel spike shape is not like any ive seen. The button on the back does not look right. The liner seems newish/odd and the sew job of the tag does not look period. As mentioned the front plate does look right for me either. A better interior pic is much needed...

I actually used to own this cover. I bought it out of France. I did kinda stink and the plastic reinforcement and old elastic seemed darn hard to fake. It also had extra brass clips added-looked period. Seemed genuine but it was not an "attic find" as is claimed in the ad. That is certainly...

Helmet looks good, but at these prices I might what to get one like this in better condition.

Is this helmet #1417 currently on the Stauffer auktion site that did not recently sell in the last auction?? I have bought from him before and have been very pleased. Chris
