M42 helmet, legit?

[jamoros]

Hi guys, this looks ok to me, would appreciate to hear about your comments, regards, Juan

Hi, it all looks ok, the only thing I would say is that the lighter coloured paint on the inside appears to have been laid on top of already heavily pitted areas so I would guess that is post war. Leon.

Thanks Leon, appreciate your comments, is this, if I may ask, in your opinion a helmet worth collecting?

[harryamb2]

well worth collecting.

[jamoros]

Thanks Harry, that s something coming from you, regards, Juan

[jamoros]

Look forward to hearing about more opinions

[FALLSCHIRMJAGER]

Yeah, it's well worth collecting at the right price, it looks generally sound and complete. Leon.

Thanks Leon, helmets are not my area of expertise and thus collecting area. Know that prices are always very subjective, considering all of these, would highly appreciate if you could give me an indication of price levels for this one, just to get an idea, since I havent got the slightest clue what could that be and would not like to throw money away, regards, Juan

Hi guys, forgot to ask the marking number 1617, could anyone tell me what does this number mean?, regards, Juan
More comments about this helmet are highly appreciated

Agree with others. Post war paint removed from outside, still remaining on inside.
