SS helmets are not my best area. Here is one that I have been offered for sale. Can any of the experts here give any opinions with the photo shown?
Thanks.

Sorry about the quality of the blow up. Does the finish on the helmet raise questions?

Really need an outside shot of the helmet along with a clear, head on closeup of the decal. A key areaof the decal has been scrubbed away on this one. Make and lotnr as well and inside shot before one can offer up an opinion on this one that would be of value to you.
