Feldgrau Attila and Field cap (Schirmmütze) from the "Kgl. Sächs. 3. Husaren-Regt. Nr.20"

[FRONTENAC]

Dear Collectors,

I would like to get an idea of the value of this set from a musician in the rank of a Senior Sergeant (Vize-Wachtmeister) or Sergeant from the "Kgl. Sächs. 3. Husaren-Regt. Nr.20".

Thanks in advance.

Nice Dave, do you have the visor cap too?

Saxon hussar as well as a musician, very nice and rare indeed.

I only collect hussar officers. But unfortunately I'm still missing a field gray uniform.
A field gray uniform of a musician, and even from Saxony, is already rare. If this uniform didn't come from dealers who charge high prices, I would pay €3,500 for it.
Please don't misunderstand. This is just MY opinion.

That’s also what I thought for the attila, and another 500 for the cap

A small addition to this thread from my own collection:

The piece is marked in two places HR 20

Charles, Unfortunately, that is one cap I don't have (like to though!). When I first started collecting I had one but I traded it away...

Nice

What a lovely group, I would think you should have no problem getting around $5000 US for the set. Hussar Feldgrau are drying up, to be honest it's the first feldgrau musician I've seen.

I would ask at between $4200 and $4500 just for the Jacket. The big moth hole detracts a little from the cap but would think minimum of $700 for it.

I think that for comparison this could give some info on the price,
Both attila and ulanka in feldgrau are very scarce en much desired cavalry items,
The are seldom for sale and prices are high...
(I have one feldgrau ulnanka, and no attila, though I would like to posses one...)
this ulanka was for sale 2 weeks ago for 4950 euro and dissapeared from the site of the seller within days probably sold,
so that could give an indication on the price for your attila...

I think setting a price is very difficult. Actually, the price is what I'm willing to pay for the part myself. You can give your opinion in response to a question. The collector should decide for himself. The collection area is also determined. Do I only collect field gray or the colorful skirt. I myself spend good money on a colorful skirt where another collector says, what do you want with this thing?
For example, if I observe a discussion about a pickelhelm that is so badly damaged, I wouldn't even pick it up at a trade fair. Other collectors were happy to have it brought back to life. My respect here too.
As already mentioned in my answer. The price is my opinion, what I would be willing to pay. The buyer has to decide for himself.

I do absolutely agree with you,
Prices at dealers like rittmeister or weitze are sky high, whereas within our collectors community things are very different, ageofkings is very reasonable mostly, as is treasure hunt militaria, but bottom line: everything depends on personal preference, like you stated, I like a helmet in less than pristine condition, dans son jus as they say in French ( literally in its own sauce) , showing traces of wear, or even combat, as others like them to appear brand new…

I was looking at that, it was absolutely mint.

Someone picked up a beautiful piece.
