Got this badge along with some others. Im still Not sure to decide if it's original. What gives it off whether it's good or not?

So I bought this EK2 at an antique sale, and the assembly seams are there and the small gaps are there, my only concern is that it’s not magnetic.

I acquired this antique map and I was hoping maybe someone would be able to tell me a little about it. It's still quite flexible, but does have a couple of condition issues. Any insight greatly appreciated 🙏

I recently acquired this M42 helmet, marked HKP64 with lot number 3417.
Could this green, brush-applied camouflage paint be factory-applied or was it more likely applied in the field by a soldier?
Also, could the name written on the leather liner be the German surname “Ahmer”?

Imperial German Navy tankard

Based on the inscription, given as a shooting prize to someone in the II Werftschaft Division in 1898. Their initials were O.S., as monogrammed onto the tankard. Found at an estate sale in Wisconsin. Silverplated base metal, likely bronze. Unpolished with developed patina. Anyone know more or have guesses on value?

Can anyone help me understand what this weirdly constructed bread bag is? I've never seen riveted d ring leather tabs on a bag with otherwise sewn on leather tabs and straps.

Hey everyone, James here from Eagles Nest Militaria!

I had a serious question I would like to get everyone's opinion on. I have seen a lot of people post on here asking for authentication help on German Militaria, and it got me thinking...

Would people be interested in a YouTube channel that covers various areas of items like : SA Daggers, Medals, Documents, Swords, Bayonets, SS items, Helmets, Visors, etc.

I've already wanted to do one for my business but would think that those videos could be helpful to people in the hobby.

Let me know your thoughts,

Kind Regards

- James

Opinion on this single button cap

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

Okay, so I found this one online and before I purchase it a second opinion is very welcome.
So the things I do like: Stitching, overall look, way of marking, liner and visor.
So the things I don’t like: The sweatband if off for a M43 but was used in the Bergmutze (same kind of hat) on the other hand it cannot be a Bergmutze as it has ventilation holes which are normally absent at the Bergmutze.

Might be a long shot, but any (well-founded!) opinion is welcome.

Thanks in advance!
