    Looks ok to me. Paint is a bit shiny, but I think it's fine. Can't comment on the strap.

    Always wait for more opinions.

    Hi, looks ok, and like it has had a thick field over paint, but I think that it is period done. What puts me off is that someone has attempted to dig out the decal. I have never been attracted to helmets that have had that treatment. Leon.

    Is this supposed to be the KIA? I heard these were struck on the top in large numbers causing a crack to render them inoperative.

    Nope. But I do believe you're right about it being struck on the top to make them useless.
