Some of the variants and the Special Kokarden card I have posted before, but I know Tony loves it so here it is again.

You just made his day Tony!

This is what I have to put up with at every SOS......sigh.

James....compare also your Baden NCO on the salesman card with the one I show in my first post. Yours has the Prussian hash marked ring while mine is smooth Bavarian style.

Another Baden Offizier Kokarde in the Hessen style (this from a Dragoner helmet in my collection):

Chas that is obscene. Astounding.

Excellent kokarde and helmet Chas, good to have a post from you. Is that kokarde larger than the regular infantry? I have noticed that on some mounted helmets the kokarden are a larger size.

Hi Brian:

Difficult to obtain a precise measurement with my calipers due to the vaulted chinscale rosette, but the kokarde measures approximately 45mm.

Hallo,
ich habe Ihre großartige Musterkarte mit den badischen Kokarden gesehen. Wunderschöne Stücke. Ich habe auch einige badische Kokarden in meiner Sammlung. Es sind Stücke aus einer alten Manufaktur. Urspründlich war es eine ganze Kiste voll. Viele ungetragene Stücke und auch Einzelteile. Ich konnte einige davon damals bekommen.

Beste Grüße
Mike
