RUSSIAN IMPERIAL HORSE GRENADIERS GUARDS HELMET CAP

Hey Doc,
The Wappen looks good to me, but then I have not seen any of these. The thing that would give me pause, the horse hair is way too reflective, I would bet that it is made of synthetic fibres, I do not think this would be horse hair anyway, and if it is not real, you can doubt the rest. Just my two cents, and with inflation, two cents is hardly worth the copper they are minted with (that would explain why US pennys are made of zinc now)

Hi Gus.

I think you are right with the hair. Another thing is the ridiculous low price 1895£ = 3300$. These helmet easily cost 10.000-12.000$. Well the seller could be a noob who dident knew anything about russian imperial and therefor the low price. - or maybe he know that it is a fake and trying to sell it cheap. I dont have any experience with this seller. Do you?

See you in Tombstone

Doc
