WW2 German Helmet Need info on it please

[n0valyfe]

Found this earlier today but I can't actually tell when in the War it was It has really shit rusty marks under the inner's but I dare not take it out in case I do damage.

Any suggestions on authenticity before the War perhaps 1935? One of the decals has pretty much seen its end day but the other decal has aged with a bit of life left.








Thanks,
Clark

WW2 period German Fire-helmet...it's missing the comb that covers the top, however...this particular helmet is also known as a "Square-dip".

Oh sweet thanks! So this is 100% genuine?

[bigmacglenn]

Yes, it's a real one...

[n0valyfe]

Thank you very much! Idea on value?

[bigmacglenn]

Considering condition and the fact that this is not a scarce helmet, my idea of value would be in the $120-$150 range...others may have a different view, of course...!

[KradSpam]

In this condition, maybe $100. It's a Model 1934, or M34. Lots of variants exist, square dip being one.

Okay sweet thanks! I paid £190, he wanted 220. Thank's again for the fast quality replies (:

ouch! i think you overpaid on this helmet and not just a little!

Don't worry, we all have paid too much now and again. At the end of the day you got a nice, genuine, Third Reich helmet.
