    Default 2 helmets to identify original or fake?

    What do you think of those helmets?

    The first helmet is green the other is black and was on top of the snow camo.

    First is M35 or M42? Number in side 811 very small size 54-56

    Second, I do not know how to identify? Number inside 4391 size 66

    Thanks to all!

    First is an M35, second is an M40. You can tell by the vent holes. The M35 has a separate piece for the vent holes, while in the M40 the vent whole was stamped into the metal.

    I would assume that they're original battle damaged relics.

    First helmet is an M35, it has the folded seem around the adages, but the vents are missing...
    The other is an M40....
    They are both relic helmets, but in bad shape (my opinion)...

    Best regards from Norway

    From what I can tell they look to be original, very much relics. They have seen better days. Did you buy them?

    I guess that's not a bad price if you really want a relic helmet or two for your collection. They definitely have been through some tough times. Cool buy!
