That is very very specific haha

Oh what a shame, but maybe the next one I will find will be a complete one! I hope he got a good owner though xd

Thanks alot that was very insightful!!!!! If I do buy a helmet without cockades I will def look at this guide again or if I buy one with some already on there, to check if they are real!!!

Ohhhh I can definitely see why they are respected, I'll try to look something for there maybe, and I'll try to look on some French sites, if I can't find smth cheaper tho I might go for the Württemberg in the pictures I sent

Oh yea that really shouldn't even be that far away, I will try to look out for some auctions

I actually live in the state where the Regiment originates from and near a city where it was garrisoned for a while, but I don't know where to look for pickelhauben aside from ebay, I'm unsure now again tho if I should get it or not xd But I suppose that even if I won't buy this one that I will...

Very true

But I posted a pic of the back, atleast I thought I did. Also do you know the name of the collector? And would I need to speak French or use a translator for that?

Oh, I never thought id ever say it, but it's a shame I don't speak french

I think I might get the Württemberg one, if no one else gets it before me, if I find someday one with kokarden and kinnriemen I'll maybe get that one in future

Hm I'm very keen on getting that one, but do you think 700 is still reasonable for it though? If I had good arguments I could maybe haggle a bit with the seller

Thank you for your reply and that's an interesting way of seeing it, but I don't plan on getting that many pickelhauben, my plan would be, if the budget is good enough, to get a Württemberg and a Prussian one. Although you are still right and if I get one now that it could probably help me with...

Thank you for your answer, I should probably check that out, also if I got it right I should get the helmet and trust that I get authentic ones? Also you are actually very close with the prices and how much they cost, the prussian one costs 400 euros, but the Württemberg one is a bit more...

Hm, maybe you're right, but how will I know if a helmet has original chinstraps and cockades? Well, I suppose I can just ask you all if I'm unsure, you all seem to know what you're talking about. Would it be an issue if I ask about a Pickelhaube every now and then? I don't want to annoy you guys

Thanks, I'll then try to look out for some cockades first, but also keep the chinstraps in the back of my mind

Thank you for your reply! Is there a site or video or could you maybe explain me how I know if chinstrap and cockades are original if I'd find any? If possible, I would like to get the Württemberg one, since its the one from my state, but a complete helmet would be obviously nicer and now I'm...

Thank you for your reply, do you think its possible to get also only original cockades and chin straps somehow? Plus, is it normal, that for the württembergian one, that I don't see the year, when it was produced? Also what does the 4 inside the helmet mean by any chance? And for the...

Hello everyone, I'm new here and I want to get an original Pickelhaube obviously. I have found 2 different ones on Ebay (One supposedly original prussian one and one supposedly original württembergian one) and I'm unsure if any of them are real or fake I'd appreciate your help! Thanks in advance!
