Gentlemen, I want to share with you these two news finds. At frist this saxonian fieldgrey spiked helmet for enlisted men from the Leibgrenadier-regiment 100, standing in Dresden...

and this saxonian helmet for a justice official. Nearly unworn.

Kolibri,

Two more great examples, I especially like the spike on the justice officer's helmet.

Are these the ones that you were thinking of selling?

Best regards!

Kolibri,

Two very nice helmets. Is the Justiz helmet marked inside?

Very nice Saxon stuff can be hard to find.

Gentlemen,

thanks for your comments.

W., yes, both are great examples. The Leibgrenadier-helmet has some deep and very nice markings from this outstanding regiment. The justice helmet is very rare, especially in this condition. You can find them with golden or silver fittings.

Orpo, the justice helmet is a private purchased piece without official markings. Inside is the size, written with a pencil, and a makers mark from Dresden. I'm not sure about the rank of this justice official, because the quality of the helmet is officers-like, but the groundplate of the spike is attached to the corpus with buckles, not with stars. Otherwise, the crown of the coat-of-arms (correct?) is chained out inside . I'm sure, that only a few helmets of this type are preserved up to these days, most of them not in this mint and completly untouched condition.

Thank you for sharing.
