Got this 22cm high bust today from Germany and just wanted to share some pics.
Dont know exactly what kind of metall this is made of but it sounds hollow inside maybe you guys could help me out on this one !
But it´s not magnetic.
Stay safe, Hakan

More likely it's made of a zink alloy known as spelter or something similar. I've had these and they turn up either in a bronze or silver finish. The bronze colored ones often have the helmet in green as yours. Nice detail to the eagle and swastika. Often this is small and not well articulated.
