Good Morning Gentlemen,
I recently picked this up off of ebay and now that my family has it they were able to send me a few good photos. It is and seems to have always been an M15 dragoon helmet with the proper spine and spike base but at some point the visor had either been cut to fit a round visor or the visor was replaced at a depot. You can see the stitching is old and tight to the helmet so I'd love to hear some people's thoughts on this one. All the hardware minus the visor trim matches as well, even the studs appear to have been painted the same color as the spike. If anyone happens to have a wappen that would match the spike id be very interested in it.
Thank you,
USN
