WW1 German One Piece Ersatz PIckelhaube Of Prussia

A WW1 German Ersatz pickelhaube of Prussia in rare one piece pressed tin configuration with brass front plate & fitted spike .
Many variations of the Ersatz pickelhaube can be encountered this being the so called 'one piece' version with spike mount integral to the rest of the helmet. Both national & state cockades are present & in good order with chinstrap having brass buckles correct for this late 1914 early 1915 piece. Internally the liner leather is intact & has a name written to its underside of which I have included an image. A floating cork band sits between the liner & shell for added comfort .
Helmet shows wear with couple of minor dents in places & chips/scuffs to the paint surface. Chinstrap is totally original to the helmet & has been very professionally reinforced behind its fold where it meets the buckle on one side to preserve the leather .
