Perforated liner. Not a good sign.

109 watchers so far. One of them is bound to bid on it.

Dragoner, Your English is fine. Much better than my German. I understand what you mean now. Thanks. Richard

Hi Dragoner, What is a chamber number? Possibly similar to a serial number? Richard

I received the parade eagle to replace my crushed one (see photos in the earlier part of this thread). I spent a couple of hours looking at it though a magnifying glass trying to spot pits, splatters, or any other obvious things that might indicate a reproduction. I couldn't find anything so I...

Hi Ron, I have purchased the eagle you mentioned for a very fair price and am waiting for it to arrive. I looked at as many as I could find on the internet and have seen several in person. I believe it's an original piece, but I have to wait until it's in my hands. I do know the weight is 400...

Thanks Dragoner08.

Yes, it's an Ebay item. Thanks for your help.

I'd like some opinions on this one. I have a chance to purchase it but want to make certain it's original. Another view. I have more photos if needed. Richard

I agree. I also compared it to a number of photos found on the web. It just doesn't look right.

Take a look at this eagle. I can't tell if it's authentic. It looks okay at first but then some of the details or lack of details make it seem kind of sketchy. :-k http://www.ebay.com/itm/151961378619?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT"...

The correct page in Johansson is 88.

To continue with the KR2 wappen anamoly questions I have been looking at examples and have noticed something else. I have now seen three examples of what appear to be repairs on these eagles. The repairs include replacing broken screw posts by drilling through the wings and installing...

I was very fortunate at the show this year. The JzP in the second picture (seen to the left of the display case with the helmet plates) is now part of my collection. Just needs a chin strap and M15 plate. Now the search begins...

I saw that one too. The seller told me that it was one of only two in existence.

I know what you mean. I spent several hours cleaning out the old thread. Tedious to say the least. Good news on the wappen. It arrived today in the mail and matches the imprint(s) exactly. Definitely a Baden helmet. :D

Hi Ron, Thanks for replying. Actually the rear visor and its markings are the incorrect part of the helmet. The thickness of the leather and the stitching don't match the helmet body or front visor. And since the rear visor was previously replaced, its depot mark led me down the wrong path in...

I've made a little progress on my "project" and I have a couple of questions. I believe that brass chinscales with nickel plated rosettes would be correct because there are no additional holes for the extra prongs on the M91 side posts (the ones that keep the post from rotating). What does the...

Thanks for the note about the chin scales. I completely missed that. I'll keep an eye on ebay.fr too. Thanks again.

Joe, Yes it's silver. It's non magnetic and there is some verdigras on the brads connecting the visor trim. It's a brand new project and I'm just getting started. At first I thought it was a steel visor and might be an M15, which I have most of the parts to finish, but it looks like this will...
