Hi,
I just joined and I have a question about a Pickelhaube. Attached are four photos that hopefully help clarify my question. My research showed me that the bandeau should not have written "Mit Gott fuer Fürst und Vaterland" as it is also written on the reserve cross. Mine has it written in both places. Has anyone seen this before? That now makes me second guess myself about the originality of the helmet. The helmet itself looks in good shape, the cockades look original to me and all the hardware inside the helmet looks legit.
Appreciate any answers on this.
Andreas
