This is 1 of my Belgian lanserhelmets. I was very lucky to come across this helmet at the Ciney fair and that it was stil for sale because these helmets are sought after. The seller told me that he bought it from someone who found the helmet on an attic in Charleroi. Unfortunately i don't know to which regiment it belongs.

Very nice!
This is mine. 2L. Troupe. Parade. First picture.
-Yours is most probably a private purchase helmet. "Wet weather" oil cloth. Removable...but so fragile. You can see the buttons.
Officer or Senior NCO.
The last one is all leather. No oilcloth cover.
No frontplate.

very nice find, that's for sure, but I've been looking for this kind of helmet for a while, unfortunately I haven't found anything yet
 
It's the 3rd one i owned. Unfortunately i traded my first Belgian lanser helmet for a german huzar busby. Now i have 2 left and i'm searching for a 4th lanser. The other one i have is a 3rd lanser, that regiment fought near my city in 1914.

At Orsmael?
 
Yes, i'm from Tienen.
This is the helmet, there is a marking underneath the leather sweatband but i'm afraid i would tear it if i wanne take a picture of the marking.
