Ersatz Pickelhaube - grey M15

[Irish1965]

Hi everyone,

This one popped up on the market. I like the color very much and it would be a nice addition to my Ersatz collection. But does this color is authentic?

What do you say.

color looks fine to me. Maybe a bit washed out from the flash?

The Reichs Kokarden looks to maybe be repainted or a repo.

Look legitimate.

Looks good from here. Has retained a nice overall shape and tight Wappen. Are the fittings painted feldgrau? Hard to tell from the pictures.

Agree with MAP re: the Reichs Kokarden.

It looks like the baseplate inside the dome was painted. Also the spike looks to be painted but it;s a blurry picture. The Reichskokarde looks to be a reproduction. All in all a nice one IMO.

Thx for the replies. I'll have to save up for this one since I just added the Bamberg Ersatz relic to my collection.

Cheers Paul

It would fit with his mates.

Great photo (....but you need to get these on proper hat stands )
