These are great, I really miss my Troppenhelms, the first one I got was bought by my dad in Petticoat lane, London for £5.00, with both insignias and first pattern construction, two more bought for £20.00 each much later on , one Luftwaffe the other had KM insignias, I nearly bought one that had SS insignias but it was too pricey for me at the time £60.00, did,nt earn that much money in early 70s straight from school, regret that now, even more seeing I have none left, I nearly bought one last year, 1st pattern with no leather brim or chin strap or insignias, but they wanted £80.00, there was too much work involved to repair and add and the cost, so walked away, a few weeks later I found a complete leather brim on a really torn up tropenhelm , could have kicked my self
