Sorry, don't know why the other two are soo small.... but the is a stamp on the liner..
To me all the pics look small. From here it looks fake/repro. Close ups are needed. Especially of the inside of the rolled edge, rivet and so forth.

Quoting what the person said..
" WW2 German Paratrooper combat helmet size CKL66 that was acquired from a Veteran's Estate. Exterior factory paint approx 95%. Liner system original to the helmet that is outfitted with late war steel slotted bolts. The black foam pads still have a slight give to them and are not completely hardened from age. Leather liner undamaged, fully intact and displays the late war R.B.Nr. as well. The chinstrap harness is in as found condition. An excellent representative helmet and a highly sought after item from an elite Nazi fighting force of World War II.
Will send shipment to anywhere in the world as long as the funds clear first. Shiping Stateside will be by USPS for Priority. and cost $15. The cost to send overses it will be $50 for USPS EXPRESS and come with full tracking to your front door.
$3500 Any more questions or photos needed please ask.

That helps a little. Pics of the late war slotted bolt are needed to give an opinion, and and also of the rolled edge as i wrote. The FJ helmets are heavily faked. Even it's 3500 bucks it's still cheap for a FJ of that description. The seller should be able to provide all the close ups needed. Forgive me, i am always suspicious of FJ, SS and camo helmets

It's ok, just starting off, only have like 4 things and one was fake, and other was half real, half fake....... That's why I started using this site.
As Lars said, more pics and closer pics are needed to give sound advice. The devil is in the details on these helmets.
I do not remenber size 66 being reproduce.
But still need better pictures to make sure.

Pics are too small: but it stands a chance.
Cheers, Ade.

It just might at that - The one thing I like about it is that it's not
all done up in camo, which a lot of fakes are.
Larger detailed photos are needed, to be sure.........
