I stated on another thread about an hour ago on a 1916 helmet with camo, that it is near impossible to fake oxidation underneath paint in a manner that it will come through and the paint not discolor around it. That's a good helmet with period paint. I agree, the stroked date is post war but does not detract from it one bit in my opinion.
Hello.
The helmet has been won. Once I receive it I will upload more pictures.
Regards Georgi.
That's awesome. A very fine lid for any collector. In fact I have yet to get a good ww1 painted helmet for my collection.
Congratulations Georgi, look forward to seeing more pictures once it's in your hands. But a nice example for sure. The date markings do not detract at all.
