I beleive this is a Spanish Pickelhaube with a very bad ball top put on top?

Hey, at 36 bucks, it is still a fair price, too bad the bid increment is so high though

 

[Robert]

I think its Bolivian.

Slim is correct. It's a helmet to the Spanish Squadron of the Royal Escort, Currasiers or the official Spanish name: Escuadron de Escolta Real, Coraceros.

A pretty poor parts helmet.

this is his third one, I got one cheap from him a week ago, arrived today, wonder how many he has?

Hey,
You have to give this seller points for honesty

"This Helmet is a total piece of garbage.If I don`t sell it I will throw it away.I would only bid a dollar if it was me. "

If a person was looking for a Spanish Wappen, this would be a great deal.
