I have a chance to pick this helmet up. I'm not a collector of them , and need a honest opinion and help.

Nothing good about this one, I would run far and fast.
The decals are painted on.

I had my doubts. I do not like it either!
My personal opinion is that it's a reproduction with painted on "decals".
Thank you gentlemen! My suspicions confirmed 👍
Check out Schwerpunkt's website it has a boat load of information and great photos to help you learn more about Steel helmets of all branches, and how to spot fakes.

He has this helmet and 2 SS cuff titles. If you guys want I suppose I can post the bands , but am wary of them
What a ghastly creation. No patina, sanded to look old and with what looks like a Norwegian liner.
As Alex said run away fast...better still if you have a car pedal to the metal on this bad boy!
