Pictured are three relic items that i'm very attached to. I've made no secret about how much I like the relic condition stuff especially if I get information with it as to where it was found, then my main reason "it was there" no doubt
1) British #20 rifle grenade found by another BOCN member at Polygon Wood
2) Dopp. Z.92. fuze atop a nose cone from a German 15cm shrapnel shell found on Somme
3) WW1 German M1915 discus grenade (a few crates of these were found at the bottom of a lake in Europe in the 1980's and must have been quite deep as they were preserved remarkably well)
Sometimes I am up in the air about restoration of these pieces as they are in my opinion in a collecting catagory all their own. If a relic looks cool as is, then it stays that way. If it is cacked as to detract from the coolability factor then restoration is considered..Dano
