The army lot below is kinda neat. I don't know if it's all original to WWII or not but it's a big glob of equipment including some knives and will fetch a pretty penny. I also like the bullion listed below because I'm really into patches and insignia.
Another German listing pulled and this time it's the wooden box lid pictured to the left. We will never know how the bidding would have played out. Still lots of good picks here to choose from in the German category.
A couple of nice listings in this block although it's the pistol lanyard that makes me wonder. If you look at that listing it looks like something that would sell for $1 at a yard sale but with knowledge you can list it on eBay and fetch over $100 in bids.
Auctions can be a bitch or maybe it's just wishful thinking. The seller of the Russian pilot's ring below states he estimates the value at $5500-$6500 but with 8 hours to go the 20 bids have driven the price up to just over $300. I'm sure there must be some snipes waiting out there....right?
