Good work, The Lubeck is a hard one to find. Well done. Regards, JustinG

A very desirable way to display the wappen. Obviously, the person was skilled at reshaping the metal and not causing undue tension or breaks. A very nice piece. Wappen on crests can be addictive. Trust me. I have over 35 Wappen of Imperial/Reichsmarine and Kriegsmarine. Make fascinating...

Well, here is my best headgear purchase for 2024. Now, While not a pickelhaube. The Tally and Tellermütze I am sure can be appreciated by you members. It is currently on it's way from Germany.

For picking up four helmets in a year span, and you saying that you are no longer "Actively Collecting" anymore. 😆 :LOL: 😆:ROFLMAO: I think this is a verbal "line" we all tell our significant others or spouses; when another item arrives in the mail and you unpack your newest helmet/badge or...

Hey, I am in that club right with you. :LOL:

BTW it said that this sold on Nov 26th. Too bad we can't know what it eventually went for. @Pontiac9999 Were you the successful winner? Best Regards, JustinG

Remember, most of the world doesn't place as much value on these as we do. (In this case, the seller thinks that he can get this.). :). There is a make an offer. Never hurts to try if you are serious. Best Regards, JustinG

@artastx Would you mind showing the eagle with the Iron Cross on the front how those attachments were to the eagle? Thanks and Best Regards, JustinG

In post 8 and 11 there are feathers midway, that are separated. Is this the retaining pin where it would have the screw post or loop to attach inside the helmet itself? On Post number 5 on the left hand Eagle you can see clearly the circle being present. Do these have different fixtures for...

My latest acquisition The Order of the Red Eagle JustinG

S.M.S. Wiesbaden. The Poet Gorch Fock was aboard this ship in Jutland 1916 when this ship was lost with all hands but one person. This sailor/poet is also the namesake of the Sailing ship Gorch Fock.

Order of the Black Eagle. C.Rothe Vienna is the maker. I was very pleased to get this in my collection.

One of the best designs I think is the Boxer Rebellion medal.

My next one is a period Prussian lifesaving medal.

Greetings, I thought I would share. My First: A Beautiful PLM circa 1960's made by Steinhauer and Lück. I am very happy to have an example of this medal as wartime versions can easily fetch over € 20,000.

I believe this is for a torpedo launcher (hence the UBTS u. TBTS. (unterseeboots und Torpedoboots). Looks like this could be removed as the feet have a Slide (resembles a tounge and groove) This is just my observations. This device would be able to be detached or attached if needed IMHO...

My display showing a mini Kaiserliche Marine Dolch an Imperial Naval wound badge, a Bavarian River Patrol badge and reserve officer Kaiserliche Marine Cockade and headband. Best Regards, JustinG

I just want you to be aware. Much of his headgear is highly suspicious. There is a Niobe Tellermutze that has strings with a very likely bogus Warehouse stamp. Much of this persons inventory is bad or put together to part collectors into getting some genuine items, like the Mützenband and the...

I don't have good feelings about this cap. The Insignia is very thick. The Interior sweatband liner and the "newness" look has me also suspicious. These are just my observations. Best Regards JustinG

No offense, but a comment like that makes me think you are a novice beer drinker Khukri. (😆😆) Ha ha ha. Every hour is potentially Beer O'Clock. 😉 Prost/Cheers/Silánte/Santé to all. JustinG
