$2,050.00
This example is an ET64 M35 reissue, with a light spray application of brick red and a hint of grass green. This finish is a strong 90+ % throughout, including the The Heer adler shows through the camouflage finish slightly. The liner and strap reflect the main features of reissue and are original untouched to the helmet. Both show the effects of wear and age. There is a clear name and Feldpostnummer in the rear skirt.
