Nice Zischagge

I think this is a German made helmet of "Eastern Style",as I saw a another German made helmet with exactly the same rivets, brow and general workmanship style. The side pieces have been replaced at some time but possibly during its working life , as the holes are correctly punched and it too has the same munitions grade armory paint on it .But a clue to its value is that the brass bosses , are either Gold or very heavily Gilted . Its a heavy helmet too , at least double the weight you encounter normal , but not as heavy as a Siege type . Nasal bar may have been replaced , I simply have not had time to really decide yet based on properties.
