Hello chaps, been a while. The Kid, if I were you I would save those pennies and get a lid in non relic condition. As John has said, they don't come cheap, but they look a hell of a lot tidier on a shelf. I had a few relics in the past and I found that I lost interest in handling them and looking at them. I now have a few nice, salty but complete lids and I get a whole lot more pleasure handling and studying them. They may sit on a shelf but I never get tired of them! If you are lucky you can find reasonably priced ND lids, I picked up an ND Luft M40 for £300 ($480) in August. Good luck. By the way John, you have a few nice Frozen meat medals on your site these days.... I will be in touch

I don't know its just my opinion that I think relic lids are really 99% a waste of money.

**Paul D** · 10-20-2010, 10:13 PM

Depends on what exactly the relics are but an opinion that many won't agree with but life is all about opinions !!

All, in my previous post I provided a link to Military War Relics, Antiques and Collectibles, RJW Militaria where descent lids can be obtained for under $1000. Some are being offered for half that price. I've asked about the site before on the forum and it was given a thumbs up by Ade and other members. Of course, nothing is absolute but your chances are pretty good the the items offered here are authentic.

With that said, a half descent lid with decals is surely obtainable. These may not be mint, but they're 100% better than relics.
