Hello. 'Long time lurker, 'new poster. I was looking at this haube: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Casque-a-pointe-dofficier-de-Dragon-14-18-Pickelhaube-spiked-helmet-WWI-/301968685877?hash=item464ebc7b35:g:imsAAOSwBPNXSThG" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; . In my novice experience, I have never seen ghosting or dirt behind wappen as seen in the 8th picture. While it otherwise looks good to ignorant me, has anyone else seen this type of ghosting / wear? Thanks. TF
 
The ghosting looks perfectly normal for a helmet that has not been apart and I have seen far worse:



This helmet looks good to me. The Wappen is correct for the 6th Dragoons, the silver rosettes with brass chinscales is correct, and officer helmets did not have studs on the rear spine like the EM helmets did.

Good Luck,
John
