Gents,

I’m looking for original Monte Cassino Crosses, preferably with matching Legitymacja.
Also, if you have any Polish 2nd Corps units’ badges, I would like to hear from you.
The same goes for the 1st Polish Corps stationed in GB, with emphasis on the 1st Polish Armored Division.

Thanks,

Greg

Hello friends,

I had a chance to check out a Type 95 NCO sword the other day, and went home to research the markings…without taking photos of the entire thing. From what I can see it appears to be a real one, but I only have photos of the handle to share here.

The only red flag I am seeing, however, is that the screw/nut on the handle has been replaced with a piece of dowel at some point. I believe all Type 95s of this cast handle type should have the screw present. How much would this affect the value?

I would welcome any and all feedback on the originality of the handle, since that’s all I can share. Also, the number on the blade matches that on the scabbard throat.

Thank you in advance for any insight!

Hi all.

I have just been trying to do a bit of research with the view to purchasing an early NVA helmet with a national flag decal. I have seen a few online, however I am wondering are these being faked? I have not seen that many and would have thought that if a fake decal would drive the price up then there would be a lot more out there as it would be a pretty simple alteration to make.

I would be interested to hear other people’s thoughts on this.

Cheers.

Hi again

some new additions came today. A few 3rd Reich award documents, all with handwritten signatures of Army or Division commanders. Fans of miniature decorations will be happy, too. About ten German minis from the WW1 and/or WW2 were listed.

Imperial period is represented by Duchy of Anhalt, with Friedrich Cross, two different minis of them and relating document.

regards
Tom

Hello all, I noticed there’s a miltaria auction listed on Proxibid that ends in about 2 weeks. I’ve never bought from them and was wondering if anyone could vouch for the site. There listings look fair but I’ve never bought from them or heard about them so just wanted to check them out, thanks cool militaria

Hello gentleman,
I just found this site while looking for info on ww2 helmets, it looks like a great resource for collecting and preservation. I just purchased 3 ground dug helmets and would appreciate an honest assessment when they arrive. Thank you for your time.

Going to ask her first. Or maybe i will stand with a fake.
The one of them is from metalldetecting and the original pice that is replaced still excist (broaken)
The other one sems to be in good condition. But as it seams with all of this stuff, its comon with fakes.
So i ask the people how knows best.
Best regards
