M95 Mecklemburg-Schwerin pickelhaube

[Adler]

After 15 years looking for a good one, I finally was able to acquire this M95 Mecklemburg-Schwerin pickelhaube...
As you all know of course, this is a rare helmet that one does not encounter that often. The Grand Duchy had only a few infantry regiments...
Großherzoglich Mecklenburgisches Grenadier-Regt. Nr.89
Großherzoglich Mecklenburgisches Grenadier-Regt. Nr.89
Großherzoglich Mecklenburgisches Füsilier-Regt. Nr.90
Anyway, I was as pleased with my purchase as a child getting a new toy from Santa...
Here are the pics:

[Chopperman]

Beautiful
Is that white frosting on the Wappen or is it burnished to make it look that way?

[SteveR]

Drop dead gorgeous helmet.

[Adler]

Thank you very much for your nice comments gentlemen!
Greg, that's indeed a frosted silver wappen with polished edges, it was produced this way. You will never encounter this on issued helmets, only on private purchase helmets.
