WW2 Nazi Police helmet, fake decals?

[Julekpl]

Hello, this is Julekpl again. Here I have a "WW2 Nazi police helmet" but I have not seen these decals in the fakes section here. The red Swastika decal has a smaller white surface behind the swastika, and more red color around it, which surprised me. Also the inside is...red? And the liner is all gone. Any thoughts? Thank you

I have never seen red under a worn off roundel of the party shield??

I have never seen red on the inside of the helmet, even under the liner.

Also looks to have sanding marks to me I could be wrong though.

At the end of the day there is bright rust, wrong paint colours and over damaged decals that I believe I fake. Once again dont move on this one either

[Julekpl]

Yeah, I think I will just try to avoid this one...The inside of the helmet is red too...This helm has too many negatives. I think I will pass this one

It seems there is just more and more fakes on the market these days...How I wish I lived in the 60's.

Sorry the link does not work samumf6.

Allot of fakers take bad decals and age them so that there is little left to look at that might give it away. Just my 2 cents. Hope this helps, Greg
