    Repro or period

    The description makes me think this is a reproduction but the sellers doesn't come out and say either way.

    Any thougths?

    Condition

    Peter,
    That helmet looks to be just too good !
    The staining which you know was done with cow-dung etc. is far too even, the chin strap is too fresh ...

    All in all, most probably a re-enactor helmet I suspect.
    .. If it were an original, I would expect the price to be way above what it is standing at as well.

    Regards

    Gary J.

      As I assumed but the wording is vague enough that I didn't know...which I think was the intention.

        Its about as old as yesterdays newspaper. I suppose it would look good on a display though.
