Relic M38 from Italian front.

[Irish1965]

Hi everyone,

I just unboxing this one. According to the seller in was found in the Padua area in 2020. It has impact damage on the top rightside.
I hope you like it.

Hi

I saw no-one had responded to your post. This one is quite badly deteriorated and misshapen (presumably/hopefully due to war time damage). I have some concerns on the rolled edge, but the damage and corrosion seem authentic. But very difficult to say without more close-up pics. Also the cover bolts are hard to authenticate from the pics.

Hope that helps

The rolled edge seems fine, and the characteristic 'dip' on the front rim is there too. A nice relic.

Cheers,
Steve

I have no issues with it - the level of corrosion is something the fakers can't replicate once you get used to understanding what father time does to metal......

Seems like a nice representation of a expensive helmet. Thanks for sharing.

Looks good to me as well.
