that coin is a Peter the First 1750 Denga, just a little out of place, no?

Sometime history tramps and retramps over the same soil. The coin may have nothing to do with the WWII era German occupation. Interesting.

I have found this coin on the thrown farm in which in 1942 year there lived Germans.

I Have washed things...

Hi Luis,

No I dont have pics of the end result but to give you an idea
the helmet pictured here had alot of rust attached to it.. so with a small hammer I gently hammered only the rust away and the decal appeared.
Then I used some oil and cleaned the helmet.. the rust disspeared a bit more..
then I let it dry and after with the dremel tool again only on the rusty remaining spots since they are they though stains..

Hope this helps a bit.

Thanks
Eric

Honestly I would not touch your helmet but of course that is a personal choice.

I see still allot of paint and touching it you might ruin it and also the camo wire should not move so best is to leave this one alone..

my 2cts..
