Please judge this rusty SS Helmet
Hello. Here is a terribly damaged SS Helmet. You can barely see the decal and it doesn't have a liner or anything inside. All this being said, is it worth $100 USD? I'd like to buy it because there's no way I can afford one of these in mint condition. What do you think? Thank you!
Dont risk it.
Looks very suspicious, decal applied over pitting etc. I'd walk away.
I wouldn't chance it.

Hi , not one for me.I do not like the way the decal rests on the rusted shell , I think this has been artificially aged all over in a tank of fluid to give the impression of a ground dug relic. Leon.
i would pass on this one

A closer photo of the decal is needed to assess exactly what has gone on with this lid as with all helmets !!

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Yes indeed, who would have believed this day would come.
Best,
