    My Second Helmet Purchase

    On the other hand, I've already had the piece below in my hands, after acquiring it for another collector. No officer's spike with stars, but a spike much longer than an EM spike with the Überzug perfectly adapted and whose traces left by the chinstrap and the wappen in the weft of the fabric...

    M15 Mecklenberg Sterlitz????

    Thats a very good price, James, for the beautiful quality of your helmet (y) A "normal" price from collector to collector on the todays market would be for your helmet 4000-5000 Euro, I guess...No doubt about it that you could sell it without problem for much more, 6000 Euro without problems or...

    M15 Mecklenberg Sterlitz????

    Connoisseurs will certainly have seen, or rather guessed, the very special BA stamp that goes well on the rear visor...Like the one already seen on another example, also a warbond helmet without cockades, sold on ebay.com in September 2015, also for a lot of money... Helmets that have probably...

    M15 Prussian with Waterloo Bandeau

    Brian, I've already had the opportunity several times (about 10 times at least) to observe M15 helmets well regimented with JR173 stamp on the leftside of the neckguard and BA X on the rightside. Always only helmets dated 1915 or 1916. It would seem that the Metz clothing office of the XVI AK...

    My Pioniere

    It's a very emotional object for me, because since the age of 7, I've been walking with my father in the precise area of the Argonne forest where Vizefeldwebel Finck was killed and buried. In 2021, I specially returned to this area, which I know very well, and took this photo of the spot where...

    My Pioniere

    One pioneer helmet more...PB 16, garrison in Metz. Double named and tracked. First worn by Vizefeldwebel der Reserve and Offizierstellvertreter Finck, 3/PB16, KIA on the 30.9.14 in the Argonne forest. His mortal remains were buried by the side of a forest path with some fifteen of his men, and...

    1°Kurassier Original?

    Not an expert. But I was told in the past, that when the top of the sword is touching the banner, let the helmet go... What about this Wappen? Philippe

    Saxon officer helmets with emblem attachment using split prongs

    Personally, I'd never bet my last shirt on a helmet from this seller. I know that his habit of completing and reassembling helmets is not as rare as you might think. I remember once when I went into his store to pick up a helmet. I told him about another perfectly named and traceable troop...
