Title Other ranks Leib Hussaren busby plate
Nationality German
Period c 1914
Sold

Nice example of busby plate as worn by 1st and 2nd Leib Hussaren regiments of the Prussian cavalry. This rather definitive design was the prototype for all the later death skull insignia of the Third Reich. It is made of solid nickel silver and has brass fittings soldered to the reverse. Quite a rare badge.

Wanted to let you know the items arrived today. Great job on the packing. Too often I buy very expensive and irreplaceable items from the UK and they get sent barely packed to protect them from the various postal services - appreciate you going the extra mile to insure it arrived in the shape it left. Thanks again, look forward to doing business with you in the future. Items were very nice, exactly as offered.
