Thanks Joe! ... Wappen not removed, but it is apparently attached via prongs. Email comments from seller as follows: "I'm REALLY not eager to remove the Wappen--as you know, it's mounted using metal prongs, and to remove I'd have to bend the clips to remove it, potentially breaking the prongs...

Hi folks - Here is a new listing that I, the novice, am intrigued about. Forum veterans have done an outstanding job to date either properly "humbling me" or setting me straight on infallables with ebay sellers or current listings, so I hope you won't let me down on this one! :D Despite...

I like the seller (so far) as well... I asked a basic question on of the Wurt. helmet that I guess will be for sale at some point. I got a very nice, detailed response on the condition (goods and bads)... so far so good. D

Members... Thanks for the comments and making me feel welcome! ....and will certainly take some time to post/share medal info (I collect German imperial).... Jumping on the E-bay offer - curious to hear veteran comments on this seller's item...

:o Okay folks - first I must say - GREAT FORUM! I am a long time collector, but of medals ..not pickelhaubes! HOWEVER, I decided to take the plunge and hope not to get too addicted! :D I have been reading your fine posts and am slowly getting educated, and I have already become acquainted...
