maybe pick axe damage?

That was my first thought too!

Punkriehitaja, may I ask where in Estonia this was found? It would be interesting to hear.

I would really like to have slapped that bloke with the pick, using his own hat and giving him a wedgey for ruining those lids, it makes me cringe every time I see that photo

Agree but most of those pick pictures are after WW1 to comply with the disarment of Germany I have seen them as a kid and thought what a waste but back then they didn't give it much thought. timothy

I don't blame him one bit Dave , those munchkins in over sized hats had been running around his garden trampling on his flowers all day , they got what they deserved!! By the way , i agree that this is a HEER re-issue helmet , a nice helmet at the right price. Leon.

I reckon Heer as well, and as Andy said, quite a nice one apart from the liner and the damage to the top.
Must admit that as soon as I saw the word Estonia, I cringed and feared the worst.
Nice to be surprised once in a while.

Someone was decal digging for a national tricolour shield. The adler may be uncovered as well but its hard to tell with these pics.
