M35 SD SE68 Reissue Heer - Lot # 4781

[helmet2id]

Today's new arrival, a reissue SD Heer. It was listed by the seller as a Heer, but when it arrived, I wasn't sure, as the decal is a uniform golden color, and the lot # falls within a range of SE reissues that were reissued as SD KM's. The members of GHW have unanimously concluded that it is in fact a toned Heer Adler, and I agree. It is complete with a nicely RB Nr'ed chin strap, and an 8 1/2 tongued liner, marked as a size 58, but which has to be a 59, as it fits my fat squash. One of the split pins is dated 1940, and each of the pins is old stock, with smooth apple green paint, which is characteristic of the SE reissues in this lot # range. No dome acceptance stamp is visible. I think it is a decent example, hope you agree. Jim G.

Great lid..............!

Very nice, I would have said KM as well, with it having the bordered Swastika, is it slightly raised? Either way its a great lid
