WW2 Iron Cross 2nd Class. MM/23. Arbeitsgemenschaft Der Graveur und Ziselierinnung Berlin.
A very nice example with tight two piece frame with a good amount of finish and a small amount of patina, beading has sharp detail. The iron core has 100% of its mat black factory finish, i think its the Meybauer's ''C'' core often found with number 23 marked crosses. The iron center is also slightly loose in the frame, another characteristic of these 23's. Ring has a clear 23 stamp. Comes with... read more
WW2 Polish Army Pay Book, Certificate of Registration and Medals.
The pay book is a duplicate so sorry to say its only got the first page filled with his name, Kazimierz Calak and service number 30041080 but does have a nice photo of him in Army uniform. Found in the back is his ''Aliens'' Certificate of Registration with his photo and more details. It would appear that Calak was from Warsaw and born in 1916, served in the Polish army from 22/7/1940 till 47, ... read more

Reproduction German Fallschirmjager Camo Helmet.
Whoever did the paint finish has not done a bad job with a rough, almost Normandy FJR6, camo scheme and a European single twist wire cage. The inside complete liner and chinstrap system has close to no wear. No size but im going to say large as it fits my ''bonce''! Not a bad display piece if you cant afford the £15,000 for an original example. read more
1938 Dated Black Steel Helmet. Army/ARP/Civil Defence.
This civil defence helmet is quite interesting as it started life as an early army helmet finished in the early brown as seen used by the BEF. Apparently lots of Army helmets from the time and brought back after Dunkirk where reissued for use by the Civil defence as steel helmets where in short supply. This one being issued to the ARP, the letters can be seen under the final coat of black to th... read more

1918 Dated UK Appreciation Silver Pendant. From The Boys of the U.S. Army.
A very nice enamel and silver present given by an appreciated section of U.S.Army personnel whilst in the UK, item stamps are British. This was an enamel badge that at some point was turned into a pendant for a lady to wear. Clear inscription to the rear. A lovely piece of WW1 social history in my opinion. read more

WW1 British Trench Candle Holder.
A very nice brass holder for one candle for use by British forces in the trenches. I would say this example is in very nice condition with clear makers stamp to the side, inside is a used candle and inner spring. The two top hooks move to the back so a soldier, or officer, could hang this on any piece of wood lining the trench. The folding top has a silvered finish to reflect the light and all ... read more
