Just got this one, very nice complete Saxon OR with nickel silver parts, most likely a Saxon Pioneer, no markings.

Nice complete helmet.

Very nice! =D>
This could also be a R100 or an ER2 (7. and 8. sächs. Kompanie)

No markings! :thumbsdown: Very very nice helmet no markings – what were they thinking? Sometimes I live vicariously through your markings.
 
Excellent piece James. I have never seen one in the "flesh" before. Looks to me like your spike top twists off...so from a trichtered regiment. Does this provide any clue as to regimental identity??

The Leib Regiment 100 and 100R wore Trichters with a black plume.

Very nice helmet James!

best regards

So did pioneers, unfortunately for us. I have exactly the same one, same colours inside, unscrewable spike, but totally anonymous, too. We will never know their original affectation...
Great helmet James, congratulations.
