This is a World War II era German helmet. I didn't know when I bought it, but have since been told by multiple experts that it's a real shell and liner, but that the outside has been repainted, and the decals are fake. I was told that these helmets were repainted and fake decals applied sometime in the 1970s or 1980s. It's marked 0494 in the rear of the shell, and is marked with five illegible characters on the left inside of the shell, ???68. The black paint on the outside is scratched and has losses throughout. The inside of the shell is green. The leather liner and strap are intact, but the liner has mildew patches. I'm pretty sure the decals are fake. I'm selling it as-is.Shipping via USPS Parcel SelectThanks
