jmd62 Posted February 11, 2021 Share #51 Posted February 11, 2021 I agree totally, these sets should remain together. It's pretty sad to think of a soldier's album or grouping of any kind for that matter, being divided up solely for gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6th.MG.BN Posted February 20, 2021 Author Share #52 Posted February 20, 2021 So I thought maybe the chin strap that sold for $160.00 might have been a one time price but there is another from the same seller ending in 7hrs that is currently at $163.50. This one has a rip so Doyer's minty ones should be worth $225.00+ going by that math.

I remember seeing them hit over $200 years ago. I think $265 for a used one was discussed here maybe 6, 7 years ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin I thought your mention of these hitting $200.00 and up was high until I saw this one that ended yesterday that proved your point. Ebay madness is correct.

sgtdorango Posted February 23, 2021 Share #56 Posted February 23, 2021 Chinstrap Madness...but its the cherry on top finishing touch for the helmet and a must have for some collectors at any cost.....mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralCheese Posted February 27, 2021 Share #57 Posted February 27, 2021 Some tragedy I just saw on an ebay listing. Helmet was listed for $75 and I was about to jump on it for the nice chinstrap but then I saw the rest of the pictures. Seller carelessly destroyed history just to get a few pictures of a completely uninteresting liner. Shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
