Opinions needed on Soviet SSH-39 Steel Helmet.

[Grenadier]

Hello guys,

I need your opinions on this Soviet SSH-39 Steel Helmet. Is this one an all original WW2 issued one?

Thanks in advance.

Looks like a nice original Ssh39 helmet and a lot harder to find with red star.

Are there any stamps on the rear of the shell ? , I would expect to see 39 or 40 dated.

The shell looks good with an original star to boot. The chinstrap is also rarely encountered. I notice flat headed rivets on the shell though. Don't know if this is a bad sign. Something you might check on the inside. The fabric of the 'sack' looks a little new. But this could occur due to lighting or photography.

Nice helmet!
