Polizei square dip M34

[Helmcollector]

This one I bought from Militärische Antiquitäten Emig in Germany about 2 years ago. Now I post it for evaluation as I am worried about the authenticity of the decalls as they look perhaps not 'aged' enough and I read about cracking of a decall when put above another that has been covered with another layer of paint. These decalls are 'cracked' but no reason to think that there is another decall under it. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Pretty cool, how much did it cost you?

When I took this pictures the helmet fell out of my hand and now this (once soft i suppose) material under the leather is crumbling out...

1000% CORRECT! A really nice aluminum M34 square dip Police helmet. I have a few with really dry orange foam rubber that comes out from time to time. Everything on yours is factory original. It's a really nice helmet. Jim G.

Yes it is the silver that is used on all TR decals , except tricolors , party shield , DRK and LW decals.
Kriegsmarine decals have a gold pulver.
