The Pickelhaube M1850 was a spiked helmet worn by German soldiers from the mid-19th century until the end of World War I. The Baden army adopted the Pickelhaube in 1849, initially with a ball top rather than a spike. Soon after the design was very similar to the Prussian model distinguished by the crowned heraldic Griffon at the front and the Baden (yellow/red/yellow) cockade under the right side chin scale boss. It had a fluted spike and a squared front peak. Officers wore stars on the cruciform base.
