Really happy this one’s going to a good home! She’s a beauty!

Thank you so much! That means a ton coming from you Tony! I have yet to check under the liner to find any dates, but once I do I’ll surely post here showing my findings. Do believe as well she’s a later example of the pre war type, haven’t considered her being ersatz though, I wasn’t aware they...

I love this thread! gonna add my contribution! God I want more of these caps!

Thank you! I really appreciate it!

Howdy all! Hope everyone is well! Well I got some great stuff that came in to me last night, I’m over the moon about them! I won’t dilly dally so here’s what came in! Randy from AOK was able to hook me up with a deal on this Prussian tachapka in almost complete and mint condition, I have...

Can’t wait to see it! I love AOK, Randy and Remy, such awesome people!

Howdy all, so I was wrong once again, the pioneer is not Bavarian or Prussian but rather from Wurttemberg! So far I’ve secured a cockade but I just need the Wappen to try. If anyone has one they would be willing to part with or has a lead on one please let me know! All the best and Merry...

Oh don’t you worry, I’ve very careful when displaying items. I only let sunlight hit on occasion usually when the weather is nice, which isn’t often here in the PNW 🤣

Got this shot earlier this evening,

Here’s the new shelf, gotta start filling it!

Thank you Rob! I really appreciate it! The patina on this one called to me, that shiny gold just looked to good to pass on!

Thank you! Just started filling up my second one! Got room for about 9 more helms, just crossing off my list one by one!

Of course! I’m no expert myself and I’m always learning, I was skeptical too when I saw it but that’s why we have this awesome forum with even better people! Love learning new things from folks like yourself!

Thanks Doug! The stand for the postal visor is a glass vase, I avoid styrofoam like the plague 😂

I Is this cockade a later one? I’ve noticed it’s quite uncommon/rare

Thank you for commenting Clovis, I do have to disagree however! I’ve had it confirmed by Randy and I’ve read extensively on these cockades, here’s a good link to James post about Baden cockade Thread 'Baden Kokarden' https://www.pickelhaubes.com/xf/threads/baden-kokarden.15377/

Thank you Kaiser! My collection is geared towards teaching, I love doing displays or classes. It’s the whole reason I stick to this hobby!

Howdy all! Hope everyone is well! Had an amazing one come in last night! Really happy with this and grateful for Randy and AOK. Had him hold this one for me for about a month until I could properly afford it and I can say it was well worth the wait! I’ve always wanted a Baden as the Griffin...

Truly! Randy took a look and he’s sourcing me a Wappen a to try, really excited to get it. Gonna need to find the cockade to pair with it.
