Thank you John for the appreciament. I try to answer your questions:Zeb,
That is one well-preserved Sun-helmet! Did it have only one cockade, and is the wappen fire-gilded? Would you be so kind as to post a picture of its inside liner and the attachments for the wappen?
Thanks
John
In theses views without the imperial eagle you can see the metal loops for the wappen.Zeb,

Zeb,
Thanks for the pictures; very interesting way to attach the wappen, seems like the earlier pickelhaube style.
Best regards
John
