"six italians, dressed in rather unusual diving suits and equipped with materials of laughably little cost have swung the military balance of power in the Mediterranean in favour of the Axis". -

The "normal prize" asked form reasonable sellers at fairs like the Militalia is in the range of 250 to 400 Euro, depending on it's condition and the unit number.Originally posted by ITALIANWARFRONT View PostWhat's the normal price for a model 33 with infantry insignia?
Just curios, any out there for sale you can show us?

However, it is not for sale...
If you're ready to pay top $$$, you might try to ask Corvi from Terni to see what he has got.Comment

Love the tag. You'd think if it was indeed "captured" the exact location would be known??Comment

That's not the classic field issued capture tag, could be a tag done later to remember were the helmet came from or a collector reference tag.Originally posted by Darrell View PostComment

If anyone has one for sale I will pay $1,000 if the insignia is nice

Agree 100% with you Giorgio...Im comfortable with this M33 helmet & insignia being original, also i thought the price was fair considering how rare M33 helmets with "Infantry Insignia" are, they dont turn up very often !! i only remember seeing 2 in the last ten years that were possibly original 
Also remember guys as a headgear collector never concern yourself to much with storys or tag's, Assess & Evaluate each piece/headgear for what it is.
I would have paid up to $1200.00 !!
By the way !!.........nice helmets Giorgio.
