I dont think Siemens made M18,s. Maybe Hans would confirm this.
Yours is still rare. Let,s see it please, maybe in another post.
Chuck, you old hound dog.

That's a good thing for a 60. That is not a bummer it's just rare.Originally posted by Chris Boonzaier View PostSigh.... just looked at my M18.... had not noticed... it is a size 60!!! Stamped ET60

Got the Ebay helmet tonight. There is no coating on it, was just the photos. It is however a 62. Should I post photos here or start a new thread?

I think I remember seeing a Siemens & Halske M18 on another forum. I'll look into that. It would surprise me if they didn't make M18s. S&H helmets turn up very infrequently, about as rarely as N.J. helmets in my experience, but aren't the rarest by any means.Originally posted by 704hoss55 View Post
I'm baffled by the "small shell size" phobia expressed here. That's a new one for me. Don't know how you could amass a representative collection without the smaller sizes.Comment

Not a phobia really, I have no need for two small sizes in 62 is all. I suppose i could say I have an M16 and a M18 in size 62 and count it as part of a representative collection but I don't collect by size only condition and paint.Comment

Let's see the helmet....

Chuck I posted it on a new thread...
By the way did you happen to score the Cut out shell on German Helmets inc? I saw it by time it was already sold or I'd have tipped you on it.Comment
