Dug up this old pipe bowl ages ago,
Can anyone identify the Helmet on it ?
Im presuming its German,because of the Eagle and the Cross on the front.
Any ideas
Thanks Mick

An artist's fanciful rendition of a Prussian Gardede-Du Korps?

Re: Help,Pipe Engraving
What date would these Helmets have been used ?
The pipe was dug from a 19th Century Tip here in Australia.

The Prussian Gardede-Du Korps helmet was first introduced in 1842-3 and continued on right up into WWI.
