super condition helmet with good remains of the original green paintwork and decal to side. Liner band corroded but held in place by rear rivet..
This helmet along with other items were abandoned in a farm building by the 116th panzer division when they withdrew from the area. It was found by a local collector who had them in his private collection until 2020 when it left the Ardennes area for the first time since the war. This is a very nice relic from the Ardennes Forest campaign during the battle of the Bulge in the winter of 1944-1945.This real bit of history from this famous battle which was Hitlers last offensive in the West.
