This helmet is at less composite ( bevor and skull are not from the same helmet)
And also on the bevor There is no notch for a lifting-peg .

A couple of things that concern me here. First, the upper and lower visor should have a method of securing one to the other, either a sneck hook like hold the lower visor to the chin of the helmet or a spring pin, I cannot make out either being present from the pics. Second, the bright orange rust visible where ever the paint ( which seems recent ) didn't cover gives me pause. Is it possible to get pictures of the inside of this helmet, possibly including the visors opened separately from each other and a weight?
