While I have owned a few Tropenhelms over the years, I do not collect them, mostly due to aesthetics and the fact that they do not hold up well over time.
However this mint, unissued KM example by Erel was a sight to behold (and the bidding went to EUR 1,004.51 Approximately US $1,199.08).
You just don't see this in this condition every day.
