Re: Pickelhauben Regimental Markings
Well perhaps one of our members can provide the definitive answer. I have no knowledge of their organization, I have seen a couple of their "boards" when visiting Tony.

Re: Pickelhauben Regimental Markings
Need some help here. I am in my condo and away from my files. It has been suggested that this might be 61 Landsturm Bn Strasburg. Could somebody with Busche please take a look at this?

Re: Pickelhauben Regimental Markings
I do not think is is landsturm
If it were it schould be marked as
Ldst.
LST.R.
the marking that i have found that is written the same way of in the helmet is
St.S.B. but it has nothing to do with the helmet because it means =stamm seebatallion
Have been looking in a other book of mine
I have found another marking that is quite similar St=strafanstalten
It is just a bit guessing if I am fully corect i leave that in the middle

Re: Pickelhauben Regimental Markings
Hey Guys,
I got in a salty Arty with rounded chinscales with NCO cocardes . It has the standard non removable spike and NO NCO PEARLS .
It has markings that I would like to find out what Regiment it is from.
It looks like-211 3rB with a 12 or 42 and the date 1903.
The marking are sharp but hard to make out if that makes since .
Thanks for any info.

Re: Pickelhauben Regimental Markings
Ok, with those convex chin scales, we are talking Feld Artillery. However, you state that it has a spike, which is it kugel or spike? 3rB I feel means 3rd Battery. The year 1903 tells us this was a pe war helmet, so I would look at the prewar list of Feld Arty Regts and see which matches the other markings on this helmet. The spine should also be non vented.

Re: Pickelhauben Regimental Markings
This stamp is from a Model 1857/60:

"MFR 36"; Füsilier-Regiment. General-Feldmarschall Graf Blumenthal (1.Magdeburgisches) Nr.36
(Halle, Bernburg) IV Armee Korps. This Regiment was formed on 13 December 1815.
The stamp is hard pressed into the dome of the shell.

Re: Pickelhauben Regimental Markings
In the world of old things, Amy asked a question which is worth answering especially for the newer members. We have a set of markings on a list that is spread out over three websites. Yes, I could probably do a lot better. These markings came from members who gave authorization to post them over the years. Believe it or not, this was initially posted in 2007! It had been added on to many times since then. The list is pretty long. It is free. I have a bunch of marks that I have not yet posted but I will get around to it eventually. Maybe I will even change the dates! You never know what I'm going to do. But here are the three websites for the lists:
