Beautiful!

Very nice! These helmets are generally in very poor condition and missing bits and pieces, like the early Prussian cockade.

 

Thanks for showing it.

JAGER, no Umlaut?

JAGER, no Umlaut?

without umlaut, for what I see

I paid it an high price, maybe too much, but it is really genuine and in very good conditions. In all collections, very high level pieces have high price. It is normal: poor or medium conditions are 90% of pieces on market, but super or mint conditions not so.

I prefer to wait, spend a little more than normal but buy very nice pieces.

Thanks to all for your compliments, but I hope to see some other pieces in this post
