M1 Schlueter Helmet value question

Hi there gentlemen, I have been offered a Schlueter M1 helmet in fair condition, with no liner. I wonder if $100 is too much for the helmet.

I attached some photos. I have never owned a WW2 US infantry helmet as I normally collect WW2 flight helmets.

Thanks, Danny

$100 is too much IMO, post war repaint with the metal strap clips, I'd think this was a VN era configuration. I would put a liner in this one and price it at $45 in my shop. $75 if I added a Mitchell camo cover.

Thanks for the answers. It was based on the belief that all Schuelers were WW2 helmets, as I had read that on several M1 sites.

The shell itself was made during ww2 yes but the repaint and post war chinstrap indicate post war use.

 

It's not worth $100.
