Original Item: These unique style helmets have never been plentiful. They were used in the vain attempt by Denmark to hold back the NSDAP invasion of 1940. Unfortunately, the Danes (along with most other Europeans at the time), presented little problem to the German Army who rolled through Denmark and onto Norway. The substantial steel bowl construction has a rolled edge, complete with full leather liner and chin strap. The front bears a brass Unit Identity disc which replaced the fancy brass Coat of Arms badge of the initial issue. Original WWII Issue Bowl with postwar liner. This is s scarce helmet of the WW2 era that saw service against the NSDAP war machine. Very good to excellent condition! Markings Vary.
