Cuirassier Lobstertail for your opinion

Agreed.
Looks like an authentic M15 Kurassier shell (pictures of the inside would tell). Gray paint is all gone and the spike and basis have been gold plated. It is adorned with a copy eagle. Chinscales are not of the correct type for a Kurassier helmet.

That is why I asked. I doubt that any part of this helmet is real. Notice how "fat" the Wappen is, that's a sure sign of India manufacture.
