For what little I know on these,the first is an Officers Bavarian picklehaub missing the chinscales. Second one, I believe the front plate does not belong there. Brass and gray metal dont mix. Looks like the officers is missing the silk lining. Now let the real experts help you

The first helmet is a very nice Bavarian private purchase helmet for an NCO. In its current state of incompleteness, I'd estimate its value at $1000 to $1300. The second has been damaged by the addition of an incorrect plate, and might go for around $350...Hope this info helps...

Cheers,
Arran.
