    Collecting season 2018

    Hey everyone,

    Yes, it‘s that time of the year again ! Another collecting year is slowly coming to an end - time to reflect on the past months.
    For me 2018 was a slower year compared to the last years.
    Still I can’t complain at all and I’m happy that I was able to add many new pieces for all sections of my „postwar“ collection interest:
    - Imperial replacements
    - Foreign replacements
    - 1957 & denazified form
    - TR replacements

    How was your collecting season ? What was your favorite pick of 2018 ? Any collection goals for 2019 ?

    Best regards and merry Christmas,
    Alex

    Hi Alex!!!
    2018 was a very quiet year for me really, I only bought a few pieces, but there is something wrapped up for Christmas!!
    Of the pieces I did add this past year, I like this Austrian veterans medalbar, with the unusual addition of a Souval BWB........

      Hi Nigel,

      that‘s a nice Austrian veterans medal bar. As you know, I have a soft spot for these as well in addition to the often related denazified Souval medals & badges.
      Nice, I‘m waiting to hear about your Christmas present !
      I heared that Christmas might bring some new additons for me as well

        A good collecting year for me.

        Pick up a number of early items for my collection.

        Including a S&L B frame KC for less than 400 Euros.

            Got to be the earlier S&L PLM for me. Well worth the wait. My photo of it is terrible, but I'm very grateful to xmember for it.

                    Did more selling then buying ... but very very happy with what I bought in 2018.

                    And looks like a trend to continue in 2019. Downsizing on the widespread of badges and focusing on names groups.

                      Had a good year. A big thank you goes out to Stijn and Rudy for the two new groupings in my collection. Negotiations were tough, but they've gone to a good home in the end. Thank you!

                      Best wishes for the New Year my friends,

                      Nick

                        Very interesting to read about everyone’s best purchases of the year.

                        It’s hard for me to name a favorite item of the year. I finally was able to add a 1870 Grand Cross this year, as well as a very early Rothe Pour le Merite; so these are definitely among my favorites.
                        Also the K. Kreutz - 1957 RK grouping was a highlight for sure.

                          U-Boot Badge last purchase for 2018

                          I've been watching for a nice Sub badge, found one. It's not an early one, but for the price and time being I'll take it. Look's to be an S&L, has the small o by the catch.
                          Enjoy all! Dave.
