I usually don't show it because it's considered illegal Nazi material in Europe but I bet there's some Germans out there that would pay good money to buy it.
I thought about collecting WWII Wehrmacht items like Marksmanship pins and Iron crosses. I had my hands on a German helmet once when I was a child but I didn't know it's significance at that age.
