Curassiers Helmet Prussia WW1 - relic state - Original????

[Irish1965]

Hi everyone,

I saw this helmet for sale. I was looking for a helmet like this to counterpart my French Curassiers helmet. But the shape of the front visor looks different than the German helmets I came across during my investigation. I can't see any maker marks inside the helmet. The Prussian eagle looks a bit graceless. The seller claims it's was produced around 1910. It is for sale in Spain. Maybe a Spanish guard helmet? What type do you think it is and is it time period original??

Did you end up purchasing the Ersatz Pickelhaube that you posted for authentication last week?

Sadly enough I was outbid on the auction. Did you win the auction?

Hi Paul,

A shame. No, I rarely bid on auctions as I find the frustrating and tend not to bid on something a fellow collector is after.

Cheers.
