Mid‑December sees two parallel events ending on December 18.

Ryedale Auctioneers caps the month on December 19 with its Militaria & Sporting Goods auction, pairing hunting equipment with period uniforms and medals.

Looking ahead, 2026 promises several larger‑scale offerings.

The breadth of dates and item types—from ancient swords to modern tactical kits—highlights a vibrant market where enthusiasts can expect diverse opportunities to acquire historically significant militaria throughout the coming months.
