Panzerfaust Posted July 19, 2022 Share #1 Posted July 19, 2022 Looking for opinions on M1 Helmet that appears to be a Ex 4 Panel Medics. Looks to have been repainted and a units shield painted. Many thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manayunkman Posted July 19, 2022 Share #2 Posted July 19, 2022 I like it. How much is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigschuss Posted July 20, 2022 Share #3 Posted July 20, 2022 My opinion...probably good. Just fugly as all hell...and for that reason, nothing I would ever personally put on my shelf, even if somebody gave it to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manayunkman Posted July 20, 2022 Share #6 Posted July 20, 2022 I have no idea what it’s worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CavalryCombatant Posted July 20, 2022 Share #7 Posted July 20, 2022 I agree with Bigs here, in principle it’s nice but as far as looks go it isn’t one for me. The liner, on the other hand, is really sharp. Display wise, the best part in my books. Value on something like this is pretty arbitrary, I haven’t been around the block enough to say I’ve seen ones like this actually sell- but I’m fairly confident in saying it’s a three-figure helmet.

Luxview Posted August 11, 2022 Share #10 Posted August 11, 2022 Hi Panzerfaust, This is probably a minority vote here but as much as I admire the beauty of an untouched original WW2 helmet, I love these examples carrying their long service history visibly with them. This one must have seen quite a few things during active life. Very cool piece imho... Karsten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
