    SS insignia is only on that side on very early helmets, not one this one I believe.
    German-helmets.com is a really good tool for questions like these

    Foreign volunteers sometimes had the runic decal on that side which would make it a very rare helmet if it is real. Colour leads me to think it has been cleaned in acid for too long. Would it happen to be a Russian purchase by any chance?

    Hi, most likely a single decal HEER helmet and not an SS as it would be exceptionally rare if it were an Eastern Volunteers helmet. Not impossible but some really good no flash daylight images of the decal would be needed to help further. Leon.

    Thanks for your responses please see attached a few more photos. The insignia to me looks too far gone even with clearer images but please take a look.SS Helmet?
