[Will95]

Hi. After a while I’ve gained some more money and bought more helmets. A nice winter camoflauged heer decaled. I’ve found this ss helmet on an auction in Western Australia. price of the helmet is 2,500-4000 aud there will also be another helmet

For me it screams fake from a mile away, the decal that is.

A Pocher decal on an M42 is suspicious in its own right and would warrant close examination.
The pictures are poor - but the decal is a one look dud.
The price is a big red flag too.

JB Military Antiques are selling items from that collector,I watched the YouTube video on their upcoming auction recently.
I like to stick to bargain junk,so I've never bought from them.

JB is notorius for being a shady dealer.

Is there any good dealers online? All the people and sites I’ve run into have been notorious for selling fakes! Are there any good dealers that ship stuff to australia?

There is no such thing as a "Good" dealer. Even the best sometimes get fooled by pieces. That's why it is important to have multiple opinions on an artifact. If you see something you like, post it here, we're always glad to look at it.


The best I can recommend is Original Helmets Inc. headed by Ken Niewiarowicz.
