Hi , looks to have a decent ridge running around the rim to me. The steels rust does appear a bit bright but maybe that's just from the light box used to photograph it? I think this one is probably ok but ask for some nice decal close up images. Leon.

a prisoner executed??
mmmmmmmm
no, that was exclusive of the German army.

Good point.
Would be nice to see some pics of the lid in natural light/daylight i.e. no flash.

The seller, Mathieu, is a serious man, you can ask him what you want on this helmet.

I see nothing wrong with this helmet whatsoever. Mathieu knows his helmets. He is not among the cons and crooks.

Battle damage
The entry/exit hole seems OK to me. The entry hole is as you would expect from an angled entry. I have included a close-up of the entry hole on my Jager zu Pferde helmet for comparison.
As for the execution theory. Would you really stand close to a person and shoot them through the head while they are wearing a helmet??? I rather think not!

Could happen but unlikely; if you have the time to round up a soldier, order him to his knees and in general harrass him, removing his lid would most likely have been part of that process.
