Do I see TWO decals ? It is an M42, and should not have two decals IMO,
but I wouldn't think the helmet is not worth too much anyway - even
with battle damage - maybe $50 to $80.
If this is being passed off as an SS lid I'd forget it, because it will be
too much $$$, and condition is very poor.........

I'm with Steve on this one Jamie, i too have seen this 4 sale, I'd save your bucks for something else, DD M42 i dont think so.

No worries Jamie, but remember it's your money and if you like the look of something and it doesn't matter about authenticity then go ahead it only should matter to you if you like it or not, but i'm sure no one wants to see you or someone else taken in by something that is not quite what it seems
All the best Phill
An SS lid with 2 decals on a M42? Pretty much tells you the guy is handing you a line.... William
