This appears to be a modern copy--possibly Indian.

Yes, a total fake.

The seller posted my comment telling him that the helmet is a fake.

And yet he still gets bids on it. Amazing!

So far, the price is good for a fake / replica (had he described it correctly). These are fun for Halloween, stage productions etc. Maybe that's what the bidders are thinking, or perhaps they're being fooled or don't care if it's original.
