Prussian Wartime Enlisted Pickelhaube

Prussian Wartime Enlisted Pickelhaube

Model 15 Prussian enlisted issue spike helmet has feldgrau fittings including removable spike and Prussian front wappen.  Peakmount shows little evidence of visor constriction.  The body remains in very good condition with no visor seperation, craquelure on the rear visor, and the body is somewhat out of shape, corrected immediately when placed on a head profile display form.  Helmet has original Prussian cockade, repainted Reichs cockade, and a modern replacement black leather chinstrap with plain gray metal fittings.  Though the chinstrap is a replica, it is a decent example and does not appear out of place on the helmet.  Interior has a heavily worn brown leather liner with surface finish flaking, a few tears and minor material loss.  Interior rear visor has faint issue stamp.  Wappen is secured through the two original grommeted holes.
