Heer M-42 Heer SD
Helmetcrazy replied to Helmetcrazy's topic in Germany: Third Reich: Wehrmacht Medals, Decorations & Awards
Hello Paul, Thank you. I sold the helmet early this year. Some problems came afterwards. There is a very long thread on MCF about the matter. I still have some photos of the liner though. The buyer tried to return the helmet after he tore the liner and one of the slpit pin had been loosened. The same helmet later came up on a dealer site and amazingly grew a chinstrap. Joey -

Very nice indeed. Just how rare of an item is this? I cannot find a single disc anywhere! Joey -

Bill, Amazing! You managed to find another example that is just (if not more) as beautiful as the one I posted. I also remember something about you thought you had another "76" but was thinking of another maker you had. Glad to see you have one again. Many thanks Bill. I am still amazed by the detail and beauty of this particular cross. Joey

Thank you everyone. I wish there was a better story behind this helmet. I rescued this helmet along with another M-34 from one of the shady dealers on ebay. It was just a lucky day for me I guess. The seller has a lot of Latvian fakes he tries to pass as original. Soon as I recieved the pictures from the seller I knew this would be mine. I think I put in a max bid of $500 on both of them. I know it sounds crazy, but these are very hard to come by. It has taken me two years to find another wich I am working on getting. And no, I ended up paying just over $200 for it Joey

And the reverse. As I said this was my very first, and has been my favorite ever since. I have only two others so far. Joey

Hello everyone, I did not see a "76" listed so far so I thought I would share mine. This was my very fist Iron Cross which I purchased from one of the best guys around. So here is my Ernst L. M?ller, Pforzheim "76" Iron Cross second class... Enjoy, Joey I had to copy these from my original posting from MCF. I lost the original photos a few months ago and I do not have a scaner... Obverse
