Appreciate some thoughts on this helmet. The helmet has some features that look original, as does the decal in places but as a whole I'm just not sure. If the decal is real I think its fairly early and has the thicker first rune at the top but the bottom part is largely missing, and it appears lacquered. Thanks all.

I don't think it is a real decal.

Hi,
the decal is clearly fake, the top of the runes are not even horizontal...
