Helmet value
I am certainly not the expert on Japanese helmet valuation, but I have bought a few to restore. For price comparison I would look at eBay and use the advanced search feature for "Japanese Helmet WWII -sake" sold items, then sort by lowest first. Looks like $60 to $80 for the shell without a star, and $100 to $120 for the shell with the star IMO.

Well, I guess even I get lucky once in awhile. Yeah, that genuine star is valuable. I didn't win this one, but it is recent. At least I THINK it is a real star:

I know i'm posting a little late but I would value the shell only one at around $80 and the shell with the star around $150-$200 at least. I bought one that looks almost identical for $150 with the shell, star, and no liner and felt like I got a deal. These Japanese helmet are getting more and more popular it seems.
