Original Double Decal Helmet?

[Jake Helms]

This double decal helmet is advertised as "original" on an auction site. Can I get an expert opinion on its authenticity? Thank you for the help.

IMO this liner is not original to the helmet. Not to fond of the chinstrap either. And you would need better pics of the decals to be sure but this helmet looks like an M40 which means there should'nt have Double Decals. Only a handful M40 Heer DD's are known to exist from what i've read. So to conclude, this helmet is just straight up bad IMO. But the helmet experts will chime in soon hopefully.

Thank you for your input.

Looks like a Norwegian reissue that someone has tried to turn back to German with fake decals and paint.

No good.

First clue - it's an M40. Second - liner is not a combat liner. Third - the paint. Fourth, with bad paint the decals are bad. Not much more to say after that.
