I just wanterd a thought about a price range here. I do not have any pictures but I found a kriegsmarine helmets all original. Condition issues are it does have the Liner band but the helmet liner is missing a few pieces and it's coming apart from the band. The decal is missing most of everything but you can see the top of the eaqle and the feet which is enough to tell its a kriegsmarine. The outer shell is not bad no rust or anything but solid looks good on the out side. It has a ET66 and a batch number of like o70? something like that it was really low. He wanted 400 for it but he wont go down. I know it's hard to judge it but basically the value is only the shell Thank you
I have seen this guy (svmilitaria.com) Karl Kithier,
who sells flags of the Third Reich, and wanted this forums opinion of his trustworthyness or any problems I may have buying from him, or if he is a good trusted dealer.
I wanted a flag of his and wanted to get a sense of his reputation before sending him money.
I have an opportunty to get a 10ft by 5 ft Krieg flag, seems in near mint condition:
Here is background to the flag:
The flag is signed by a Usa soldier and dated at the time and town of capture by the same soldier.
There is a name of the soldier who found it and a chum of his signed the flag too, I am assuming that there is no other information that is coming with the flag like family address or photos, so the only provinance is the name and date on the flag, done by the soldier.
My Question: Is the flag less collectable or more collectable (or what..?) due to the name and date of the flags 'kidnapping' being written on it.
Ie is it worth buying, or should I get an unblemished flag instead of a non provinced (apart from the flags GI inscription) flag.
How can i tell if these Himmler’s calling cards are real?
The first one sold by the dealer for $400, the one bellow is half that price with different dealer, they look the same to me reverse is blank, i just can’t tell the difference? i guess they are same
I have never seen such an Eagle as this. I especially am wondering about the black Hakenkreuz. Is this real? I have no idea what the size is, but I suspect it is over 12" wide. No, I don't have a scan of the rear. :(
Hi, New to this forum but not collecting and have been collecting mainly Waffen SS items and have been out of medals for a few years. I picked this one up at an estate sale and it looks good to me. Just want to be sure. It has a magnetic back plate and the detail is very high quailty. Please give me your input. Thank you.
