Hi

I am interested in knowing the value of a WW2 German helmet that's been in our family for generations. I am attaching photos of it as well as the following write up.

My late uncle brought this German helmet back from valiantly fighting in the Battle of the Bulge. He gave it to our
family and we've had it ever since. I did some research and I know its from the German Air Force (Luftwaffe) . It sports on one side the second design of the "drooping" eagle with the swastika logo.


This is an original German helmet that is 100% original and unmessed with. The way it came to us is the way it remained for over 60 years. Considering the helmet saw conflict it is in pretty remarkable shape. As near as I can see it is not bent up.


Like I said, the one side of the helmet is the decal of an eagle ("drooping") and swastika logo. On the other, there is the remnant of some kind of paper marking that is long since gone.


I don't know alot about military items but I can say that there are two imprints on the inside rim of the helmet - 1574 and ET62.


While the leather liner is still intact and affixed, the chin strap is no longer with it both clips are still attached and the side that doesn't buckle still has a bit of leather fastener left to it.


Any thoughts on its value?


Thanks,


KC

Have a read, make your own minds up! :) I think this story was intended to drum up lots of hype, but it looks from the comments that people are actually being rather sensible about it.

Hi Rudi, ref your email could it be possible that they incorrectly stamped the buckle and all that was left was the "L"? Look at this Heer buckle, you can see the "N & H" with the "L" underneath which looks like the "L" on your buckle, what do you think? Just food for thought mate cool militaria

Hi friends, here the description I found on the web.

BACKGROUND: On July 20TH 1934 shortly after the, June 30TH 1934, purge of the SA on the "Night of the Long Knives", the SS was rewarded by Hitler by being granted the status of an independent organization under direct control of the NSDAP. In an attempt to distance themselves from the SA, the SS introduced a new pattern cap skull to replace the previously used Imperial Prussian Danziger style skull on October 6TH 1934. Originally the overseas cap skull was produced as a metal button that was affixed to the front center of the cap until regulations in 1939 introduced a machine woven version that was utilized for the duration of the war.

I found some of these very rare skulls in Bavaria not far away from Bad Tölz, all on the same place, possibly thrown away from theyr owners.

Hello Everyone,
I've been looking to buy a SA Dagger for a while. I've been offered this one for 350 euro. What worries me is the blade - its marked ( I've marked a couple on the pictures with grey half circle) rubbing my finger tips along the length of the blade - it feels smooth, without any indentations, if it had been re-polished, one would feel hollows on the blade. I'm at a loss what to do, am I being too fussy and worrying over small things to much, the dagger is after all over 70 yrs old and the price not too exorbitant. What do members think?
Regards
