I put up a poster at a farm and feed store a few months ago and completely forgot about it. The other day I got a call about a bayonet, didn’t have much going on today so drove way out into the middle of nowhere to check out said bayonet and these two helmets are what I left with.

Purchased from a 80+ year old man that got them from the veteran that brought them home (sadly name forgotten) but this old man had a small imperial German collection (box of belt buckles, coins, paper money, iron cross) that he doesn’t want to quite part with yet but is getting on in age. Only wanted to sell the “big” stuff. He had $100 each on them I tried offering a bit more but he wouldn’t have it. So here they are home with me.

Looks like a nice score 👍
