Some pics of my 3 Saxe Dutchy helmets. The first two leather helmets JR 94, 95 I have had for many years. The filz helme I bought last summer, it has no Regt markings except for the Korps stamp BA IV which is correct for JR 153. No extra holes. Unfortunately, visor trim split and small cross on the wappen orbe is missing, a rare beast though which I could not pass up.


 
I posted this before but I thought it was a good comparison to your Saxe Weimar cockade. Here is one the old colors.

Thanks guys. Yes James 3 and another M95 OR helme clearly stamped to JR93. Unfortunately, it came with a Prussian eagle on it. I know this is ok as we see this in original fotos but I would love to have the correct state wappen on it! If anyone has one for sale or sees one for sale please contact me. Thanks for the kokarde post Joe, I did not know that there was no black in the older version. The filz helme came with an original state kokarde but the other 2 had to be bought off of German Ebay,they are originals. I need to start looking for an original kokarde to JR 93. I think I would feel a bit better with the prussian wappen if I had the proper state kokarde on it. I oviously also need an original strap for one helmet as well. I have pre 1910 shoulder straps for JR 94 & 95.....I will post them on this thread as well.
 
Brian,

The old one does have black – it is in the center and is covered up. They kept the same colors but changed the order. They changed the flag and everything. But it was only the order. Took me a while to find this they also changed the name of the country!

I understand what you're saying about the Prussian eagle but just as you said it is correct.

V/R
Joe
