Went for a little swim today, found this nice helmet just waiting for me in the pond. ;D Beautiful weather, and a beautful find.
And when i came home, my wife had dinner ready. ""What a perfect day""

Great find. Is that helmet small, or is your hand large?

Wow, that helmet is in very nice condition! Looks like it was partialy buried in the mud. May be some guns in there too.....

Neat find. Have you found any other items from the war there?

How much does one cost over where you live? The reason I ask is that I stopped at an antique shop in the state of Texas the other day. I picked one German helmet up and almost fell over when I saw the price. They were asking $800. I don't know if they normally are that high priced or what the normal going price is. I started thinking about all of them that I saw as a child that were converted into motorcycle helmets, etc.

Thank you for your time.

Awesome find. I wish that I could find one like that some day. I would check that lake again. There is probably much more stuff down there.

Have only visited this pond two times, i am dreaming of finding old guns. But until now i have found 1 eggshape handgrenade (unknown mod), 1 stickgrenade (Granat 24) and this helmet. I belive the price for items like this is skyrocketing in all countrys, almost everyone would like to have some piece of ww2 in their private collection. $800 for an 60year+ old steelhelmet is normal priced in this country.

I have photos of the stickgranat here on treasurenet aswell, look for "Granat 24" in Todays finds. :)
 

theres likely to be more stuff there as norway had nazi troops there -- I think the good people of norway hung the traitor kesslring after the war --- the people of norway fought very bravely in the resistance and paid dearly for doing so --sadly the french resistance gets alll the "press" and is well known but the dutch and norway fighters were very very brave and faced harsh punishment if caught
