I think the helmet is Hungarian, but others will confirm or otherwise.
-
I think it might be a Spanish M1942 Modelo Z,
It’s hard to tell from the photos, but there should be a little ‘bracket’ on the front of the helmet. If you can get a photo of the front, you could tell instantly (even if the bracket has been removed).

I believe the bayonets are Chinese AK47 bayonets but both seem to be missing the hanger from the scabbard.

The lid is a Spanish M42, I'd willingly pay more than $30.

A Spanish Model Z... and you don't often find them with their original liner and chinstrap - which this one has. They were usually updated during their service life. Well worth the $30 asking price... don't let it slip away from you!
Cheers,

Thanks everybody for your replies.
By the time I went to the bank to get money to meet the seller... the helmet sold. It was just listed this am.
I still plan on purchasing the bayonets. I believe they’re worth the $25.00 a piece. Most likely would have flipped the helmet if I could’ve purchased it.
Bayos have, what appears to be, some type of etched serial numbers. I also believe they’re Chinese and missing a couples parts from the scabbards. Not the end of the world.
Thanks again,
D
