Best Pickelhaube of 2015 hands-down was this amazing issued Model 1856 Dragoner Pickelhaube in perfect untouched original condition. It is the only one I have ever seen in 35 years of collecting. Early issued Dragoner helmets just do not seem to be out there, so this was a very fortunate find. And here in Kanada no less! This is just an brilliant early issued helmet.

I placed it beside a M1895 Neusilber Wappen and you can see how the M1824 seems so much more simplistic, and of course no Bandeau.
