As the guy's have said, this is no Freikorps helmet, just a played with lid. Leon.

I'll have to disagree with the "aerial recognition design" story , the swastika (with the dots between arms) on this helmet is actually the Hindu swastika rangoli and predates the Nazi version by thousands of years. I am surprised the paint from this Hindu swastika has survived all these years, especially after someone has tried to remove it with alcohol...... "Good Fortune" I guess.
Trench art IMHO.
