Love that one!

Hey Werner,

;-)

I'll see what I can find for the shaft.

About the similarity to African spears, I can say the difference is obvious when in hand.

The finishing and the weight are very different.

So here they are;

Hey Mervin,

they are "collectables" but at very low value.

|<ris

Hello, could you provide any better pic's please and some description, about measurements and if there is any markings on the back.

It does look French to me too, so far...

cheers

Here you go!

Some of the French brass helmets I used to own.

Picture is print screen of a photo book I am making for my self, of the items I owned for the past years.

I can also contribute with a Belgian set.

Saved this set of photographs of being sold separately from the medals at a car booth sale. The guy in the frame, is the same one as on the 19 th century pic's. I would love to have the helmet!!

Have you ever seen them in Flemish?

;-)

Got the spear head in today.

It is quiet big! Had a TR dagger next to it for comparison.

Cheers

Hey Mervin,

I left you a PM regarding the Belgian stamps, did you see it?

cheers

Nice belt! But that might make him less "offensive"...I think....!

cheers

|<ris

Ps love the uniform too!

Here is mine D'hanis medal, along with other Congo table medals.

Ok, thanks!

I'll inform with people who might know this...!

|<ris

Hey Mervin,

here is something I know nothing about, but willing to learn.

However; I don't see any Belgian stamps among the one's you have posted....(for what I know about them!!)

cheers

|<ris

A lock for your collectors room door?

Thanks Odulf!

But I found out all ready, as stated in my second poste.

Maybe a mod could help in adding "Garde Civique" to the title.

I am hopping to get the "Mayo" real soon, because I managed to find a nice pair on the net.

cheers

Very nice!

For a long time on my list...

cheers

Garde Civique items are rather rare to find.

So great was my satisfaction when I managed to find this bugle.

And it is not the end, also found very nice shoulder pieces. All from different sources.

cheers

|<ris

Have you seen the results?

...or sports medals.. like also stated!

I can't find any examples right now....
