DD relic helmet, opinions?

[Iron Hussar]

Hi all...

Again looking at lids, what are the thoughts on this one? I rather like the thought of a relic in my collection...

The rust and pitting seem to be genuine, and the decals look right, given the bubbling cracking through the detail? Though I am a bit wary of the eagle, is the swastika too thick, the ones I've seen have slimmer lines. Any opinions on whether this is a decent relic piece, the price to me seems quite reasonable (at the moment, it's an auction item).

Very happy to hear thoughts, and of course to be corrected about my opinions if I am wrong

Cheers everyone!

I think the eagles been touched up,but for a relic its nice and named.

Good spot Harry, I think you're right.

I say they were just cleaned to much. Not altered. Good shell and decals anyway.

The decals look to be cooked. An old fakers trick to age decals.

Thanks again all, I stayed away from this one just in case.
