Original German WWI Prussian M1915 Infantry EM/NCO Pickelhaube Spiked Helmet in Relic Condition Accessories the hook quillon was removedOriginal Item: Only One Available. We have had some very nice German Pickelhaube helmets in the past, and some that definitely had a lot of service wear. This example however is a bit past that, and we would consider this a "relic condition" helmet, suitable only as a display piece. The vent and spike are stuck on, the shell is deformed and almost crushed, and the chin strap is long gone, leaving only the lugs. It definitely has the look of a helmet
