Item Description : A beautiful M40 German helmet with liner, chinstrap and wiring. The liner is very fragile and brittle from poor storage. This was found near the coast so that explains the rough liner and rust. Chinstrap is also in a similar state and is quite fragile.
The helmet itself is still in a good sturdy condition with only light surface rust. Paint is still 50-60% still present. Beautiful wiring is still present on the helmet and does not have any highly corroded points. It is a size 66 shell as can be seen from the'Q66' stamp. I was not able to find a batch stamp anywhere.
Not entirely sure what the'19. H' stands for but most likely a sort of name tag. This is a single decal Heer helmet with the decal being about 85% still intact.
