Hey guys, the local auction house had a ‘lot of 5 American helmets’ on offer, There was one blurry photo, I put on a lowish bid and won.

One of the helmets was a nice standard HSRAC,brown textured paint, mkII liner dated 1940, mkIII chinstrap.

There are also 2 identical helmets, that look like HSRAC’s, 1940 liners, mkIII chinstraps, then you notice the shells are HSDR’s and they are painted with a strange green paint, post war or reenactor?

Any ideas on the green two? Thanks in advance.

Picked up this nice tombak High Seas Fleet War Badge by Schwerin with coke bottle pin, tomback flat wire catch and block hinge. It weighs in at the perfect 32g.

Overall shape is just the way I like them. Good worn condition with just slight wear.

That said, I’m not sure if it is a first pattern 6.01 or a second pattern 6.02. It is missing a few characteristics of each. Would love your opinion.

1) the Maker Mark located closer to the catch with is typical of a 6.02
2) It is missing the alignment dots that follow the curved contours of the 6.01 badge right below catch (they look like braille)
3) It however, does not have the slightly misshapen down sloping right antenna boom die flaw which is typical of the 6.02 version.

Personally, I would think it is a 6.02 struck prior to the emergence of the die flaw in the antenna boom.

Either way, a great award that I am happy to add to my small KM collection.

Description: Hello Gentlemen,
I’m looking for a bottle of TR “Fantastisch” drink.
As you may know, this drink was created by Coca-Cola Germany when the blocus over the country did not allow them to produce Coke anymore…
A full bottle would be a dream, an empty one would be good enough i guess…
not interested in vintage Fanta bottle, only Fantastisch pls
Thanks
JPhilip
