Title Prussian line eagle plate, last pattern
Nationality German
Period c 1900
Sold

This helmet plate, with screw bolt fittings (now with only one nut), was built for the last model pickelhaube, but could also be found on the cuirassier helmet of the same period. It has obviously had substantial service life, but essentially is in good shape.

testimonials

Having received the beautiful medal that has been the subject of many recent phone calls, I am absolutely delighted with it. More importantly, the research you provided into the military backgrounds of all those involved made it all the more poignant. Thank you for your highly professional and friendly help and advice throughout the transaction.

Excellent information, Chris, you've been making a big effort! I will spell it out more closely (I'm a historian!) and don't think Bezdek can add much more.
