That's a post war West German helmet no liner band rivets and larg air vent hole. This would be the first put off even before looking at the decal.

This one astonishes me how stupid they think we are World WAR II German Tanker OR Biker Helmet Original Repainted | eBay
in this example: is the shell original or fake??
Shell is an original SE M40 with a fake liner, strap, decal and camo. That said there is a good fake SE stamped shell out there I have seen posted on GHW2 a while back. But this looks fine.
I was going to comment but you deleted the photo...
Hi there,
what do you think of this Ebay member his helmets (please look at his last 3 sold helmets,too).
They look really real helmets for me except the inner leather which I think is not old enough....and they are solid...not as the other ones/fakes I saw

thanks a lot
only a blind guy couldn't see that it's a fake !!
some good looking stuff on this thread especially for us new recruits, the only thing is there are no side by side comparisons and decriptions of what is real and what is fake and why . I very nearly got burned today by someone who is well known to some of you (see my other post today) and have spent the entire day "revising" and some of the stuff on how to "age" stuff on the internet is truly amazing.
