I tried to write a short post just to see if I could add a photo and that doesn't work for me either. It seems...

Bernard, Due to forces beyond my control I have been absent from the forum for a while. I noticed your comment and, of course, I disagree. The helmet may not have been originally manufactured with nuts holding the Raupe; however, if it was not built this way it is a period repair. I decided to...

After reviewing my above request I realized that it is a little vague. I am looking for three Irish coins to complete a collection. I am not having good luck finding them here. Anyone willing to assist me in finding these, your help would be appreciated. Thanks, John

Do we have any forum members in Ireland who would be willing to help me with a wee favor? It is not Pickelhaube related, but deals with another collection. Please PM me if you can be of assistance and I will send you my personal e-mail. Go raibh maith agat! 🍀 John

Thanks Brian. Do you have any idea what type of liquor it was? Did the spike sit that high on the one you had? John

I have been watching this item for some time and I am thinking of buying it. It is not old, but I might buy it as a novelty. https://www.ebay.com/itm/265639819627?hash=item3dd95df96b:g:s74AAOSwkDBiP4wY Does anybody know what originally came in this "helmet"? Initially I thought it might be...

This is a reproduction probably made in Britain in the 1970's. Shy away. John

My favorite coin: It wouldn't buy a healthy meal in 1923 Germany. John
