Prussian Guard M15 Named Unit Marked Pickelhaube In Need Of Some TLC And Parts

A nice find, Matt. Note the side post inner roundels used on plate attachments, as discussed in a recent thread. If I were you I would keep TLC minimal, to avoid compromising the sweet "untouched" character. Just my two cents though.
 
Nice un-touched example. I like to see the natural brown leather liners opposed to the black dyed. I have owned a couple helmets with the side post washers used behind the wappen attachment leather wedges.

Would this helmet have had a standard Prussian set of cockades?
You might send a PM to @J.LeBrasseur . I bought 2 sets of original and never used kokarden from him. Prussian and Reich.
He bought a lot of never used ones, maybe, just maybe, he has a set left for you to buy.
It's worth a try anyway.

Regards, Coert.

Thanks Ron

Hoping to find an original spike, Prussian cockades and chinstrap for it.
