Well,have you seen this helmet at Weitzes page last friday? I was surprised-this is one of the real rare birds for a collector of captured and reissued helmets!

Micha

Not a really sharp picture,but it looks so far ok to me.

Micha

Here is one at a medal bar.

Micha

The first class is a bad copy! The 2nd class could be better-can you post some bigger pics?

Micha

Fantastic EK! And not so easy to find.the engraving could be period done-but that's a mine field and I don't have such pieces in my collection.

Micha

The cases from the top....

So there is just one kind of EK case that would fit the crepe box....the thick black one with the white rim in the top.Also not very common.There's another thicker variation(a whine red one),but it's not thick enough to fit perfect! For comparison(left to right)-standard brown one,thick red one and the black one with the white rim in the top.

Very interesting is also the thickness-have a look at the picture!The direct comparison to a regular EKI card box!

If you have a look at the card box-the material isn't the usual card as used for all prussian awards.It's a kind of crepe card.Much more fragile than the regular ones.I haven't seen much of them the last few years.

Officer? no....and it's just the pusher that's missing at the case.

Micha

Joe-absolutely correct-the EK was never worn.Steve-It's a bit quite at the EK front.....Nothing spectacular-except an 1914 LDO L/10 screwback in the LDO case.And some bits and pieces.But back to the set.....no one has had a closer look at the box? And the case?

Micha

EK is maker marked FR below the catch.

And no one has had a closer look at the core.....

My "S"....

Micha

Nothing wrong here.That's a beautiful "Godet" type core.I like it!

Micha

Kay is right-that's a fake!
