What I would question is why there are no ventilation holes in this helmet?
German engineering is very particular and there is often a vent hole on pretty much all of there headgear (except maybe pelzmutzes). The vent holes were designed to dissipate heat or relieve pressure from artillery...

I believe this is probably a repo Feldzeichen, and the price it went for is astounding!
