aef1917 Posted November 17, 2018 Share #2 Posted November 17, 2018 They're uncommon, but not exactly rare. I'd stay away from this particular one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daskrieg Posted November 17, 2018 Share #4 Posted November 17, 2018 I am no expert but the Insignia looks too new to be on the helmet of that condition. Even though the condition of the helmet is good the painted Insignia looks newer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aef1917 Posted November 18, 2018 Share #5 Posted November 18, 2018 The battalion's helmets were painted by a member who had been a sign painter in civilian life. His methods ensured that each helmet was nearly identical, and this one doesn't match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
