Correus Posted 27 July , 2012 Share Posted 27 July , 2012 Here are some new toys I go tyesterday!! Not bad for an investment of $160. From top to bottom, left to right: Baden haube - complete with both Kokarden; Prussian haube - complete with both Kokarden; Bayer haube - complete with both Kokarden and repro chinstrap; M16 with M16 liner - complete liner no chinstrap; M16 with M17 liner - partial liner with partial chinstrap (this one is Austrian - there weren't many Austrians on the Western Front); M18 - complete liner no chinstrap; 08 Binoculars; Hebel flare gun (heavy sucker); eK2s M1917 US Trench knife; Granatenwerfer 19 (just need to find a Schießstockkopf and Zwischenstück - anyone have some to spare?) - it fires quit well!!!

Correus Posted 27 July , 2012 Author Share Posted 27 July , 2012 Sorry - but that is correct. I got all of those items, plus some cash, for 1 item in trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correus Posted 28 July , 2012 Author Share Posted 28 July , 2012 It was a Quist M1940 SS helmet from a Pz.Gr. group. The helmet was 95% (the liner rivets were missing but liner is original and intact) and the decal was 99% - there was a little smudg caused when the decal was originally stuck on it.

Correus Posted 28 July , 2012 Author Share Posted 28 July , 2012 Great collection, I reckon I know who got the better side of the transaction. Believe it or not he did. The insurance value was set at $13 - $15K. There is one "on hold" with a militaria company for $13,995.00 - their just waiting for the funds.
