A very nice helmet! ET were known to have made the largest number of imperial German helmet shells.
The double ply leather liner band and pads all look original. Not 100% sure on the leather chinstrap. Any pictures of the opposing side? Especially at the ends? Is the strap constructed of one continuous piece of leather?

As I mentioned on GHW. It looks like a winner to me.
chinstrap looks OK, but I trust Andy's experience on these more than mine
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

Thank you for your detailed reply, I'll post the other chin strap pictures tomorow!

No need for any further photos, as I’ve just seen those that you posted on GHW. Looks fine!
From one of the photos you originally posted I thought that the strap was two piece which would not be correct for an M16. The M18 strap was two pieces, but this is not an M18 strap.
Increasingly hard to find complete untouched field grey steel helmets in such lightly used condition, so certainly one to hang in to.

Perfect! I'm happy of your and all positive comments! I'm happy I found it and that I recognized several good characteristics!
Thank you! And thank every one for all the help!

A very nice untouched example. Very well conserved over more than 100 years. An edition to any helmet collection. Well done.
Cheers Paul

Hello! Yes I agree, it is incredibly well preserved, especially the chin strap, not even it is still there, but it is also the brass fittings one!
