I might add that many here likely know who the seller is so I will not mention his name as I do not know if it is against the rules here? Also, I have first dibs on the Hauptmann's shoulderboards and collar tabs, and I.D. disk when they come in. His TDBs are for sale, they are not in my price range. If anyone is interested in those? send me a PM and I will let you know where they are at.

Very nice pick up and good luck getting more from the same winner!
I don't "actively" collect attributed items but I do own a KC winners visor .
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

Thank you, and you have one hell of a great visor!! I would give my teeth to have one as nice as that-and with that connection. If you do not mind me asking? who was the RKT?

Very cool 24 PD and MAP! Reiter Regiment 14 - or the units it was distributed to I presume?
I tried to bid on a couple RKT items at an auction earlier this year, but a miscommunication between myself and my guy present in the auction hall foiled my attempts.
I do have this grouping to Joachim Tiesler. I believe I have posted it here already, but he was awarded this DKiG for heroic actions at Stalingrad while a battery commander in Artillerie Regiment 3, part of 3rd Motorized Infantry Division. I'm still trying to get a photo of him but so far no success. The remnants of his OKH file that I was able to obtain did not have the photo in the space where one is supposed to be stapled. I even had a German friend call a living Tiesler that we thought was a descendant, but turned out there was no relation.
I also have a bunch of paperwork to include newspaper articles clipped and framed by his family. One on his awarding of the DKiG and a few about his death in battle in Poland in 1944. He was buried in the Sammelfriedhof in Zamosc Poland per the war graves commission website.
The above, is also one hell of a nice grouping. I once owned a DKiG, but was to a Kriegsmarine U Boat vet. Sadly, it was pinched from my collection about 20 years ago. Yours, is another I would give my teeth for-especially being a unit in Stalingrad. I have I think 2-3 pair of boards (two RKTs) who were in Stalingrad, and another of just an officer serving there. Im a Stalingrad hopeless case.
I forgot to add, I had 5 original photos taken of the award ceremony where he was getting his DKiG and presented by RKT Wilhelm Dommes.

Let's just say I was lucky to get this. I missed out on his personal photo album which actually went for more than the visor.

Thanks! And sorry to hear about yours getting pinched. That *****.
I have another grouping to another Stalingrad veteran but he wasn't a DKiG recipient. He did earn the EKI, however.
