Just won this beauty off of ebay. Seller had a bad title so not many found it. Had it listed as "wii army frount seem helmet". In actuality, it is a front seam fixed bail Navy M1 with a Navy Lieutenant rank painted on front. Liner has a couple busted straps but I can live with that. Also on the liner are some numbers stenciled on. The helmet has specific rust spots inside which match up with the liner so I am assuming they have been together for quite some time. I'm really excited to put this one on the shelf. I paid $250 including shipping, was that too steep a price? I've seen another Navy Lieutenant helmet without a liner go for about $150. I'm confident the rank insignia is original but would also like your thoughts on that. Thanks guys.
