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.

Bayonet arrived safe + sound this AM Sat. Special delivery excellent again. Worth the few extra bob. To be honest it was better than I dared hope. I usually avoid polished bits like the plague!! Your price was a bit fierce!! - but a great marking I lacked... Please email me anytime you have anything that might be of interest.
