Thread resurrection. This is the one I have, mentioned earlier in the thread. Due to the uncertainty of authenticity mentioned above i've never done anything with it beyond oiling. Said oiling has never made that odd orange rust patch ( looks like active rust ) go away, its always remained brighter in color but the metal is in the same condition as the darker " in active " rust. There is roping faintly visible along sections of the rolled and counter sunk borders. As mentioned earlier and visible in the profile picture there is nowhere near as pronounced a comb, in fact I would call what my helmet has more of a medial ridge.
