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.

Found the item a little on the expensive side and a bit disappointed that you were unwilling to bend a bit on the price of the Officer's Tunic Eagle (half the fun of buying, after all, is the haggling), but impressed by the speed of delivery and the quality of the item. Was well worth it in the long run...
