    Part of a Standarte or a Hood Ornament?

    Gentlemen:

    While I only collect certain types of German helmets, I was recently approached by a guy who, I believe, does not collect militaria and asked me what this was. My initial response was that it appeared to be part of a Standarte (he thought it was a hood ornament). Anyway, can anyone tell me what this is and what is a fair market value for this? Thanks in advance.

          I don't know what it is -- but, it looks cool!

          What are the dimensions?

            From the fine detail, nice markings, and what looks like a small overall size based on the proportions of the screw threads to the upper eagle section,
            I would say it was an auto fender flag pole top, well worth $300 of more!

                Wow! You hit the jackpot. Thanks for the input guys. The item is not mine and all I got was some pics, so I don't have the dimensions. Thanks for your help!
