Hello,
hkp 64 helmet 13776.
What do you think about this one ???
An idea about value ?
Thanks in advance.

All original for me. Looks like a attic find or similar has suffered from poor storage exposed to moisture for many years. Value around the $450 - $475 USD ball park. Johnno.

Agreed.

Original but poor condition.

Hello,
Thanks for replies.
a passage to oxalic acid would it be wise?

I do not think so , this is only used for ground finds.
Also you would need to disassemble the helmet which would make it no longer untouched. Keep it as is.

OK thank you for the fast reply.
Have a good day.

Don’t touch it. It is what it is. Leave it alone!

Hello,
I leave it alone no problem. I like it like it is, a helmet that’s 80 years old.
Cheers
