Good example of this relatively rare Prussian helmet. One spike base nut missing and small hole to rear peak, otherwise in excellent shape with two long prongs at back of eagle plate for securing plate to helmet. Complete with original cockade and scale chin straps.

Owner's original name label on linen stitched on to lining (name illegible) and regimental stamps in back peak.

I received the 1859 Enfield bayonet and this one is simply awesome.

I am wholly delighted with the shako plate. [It] is a wee cracker. It is a real pleasure to have something combining both condition and quality in equal parts, and I simply could not be more pleased.
