I got kind of excited at first glance when I saw the pics . A grey Meck !!!

There is so many things wrong with it has NO written all over it .

The division lines on the plate are not even strait .

Not sure if the shell is leather , painted felt or ?????????

I would think that the biggest concern would be that the Wappen is an Indian cast copy. That entire helmet probably smells of Curry.
 
Yes, the spike top is not right either and coated with that "aging chemical" the European fakers use. :thumbsdown:

I've never seen an original helmet where the fittings had turned that color, has anyone?
 
That's not even a good fake. The metal looks brass to me and not grey.
It is probably worth it's current bid --- about $13.00, no more!

Man what a GREAT GREY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I sure wish that was selling for $17.50 :eek: :eek: :eek:

Could I please see more pics of that ?
 
I hope none of the bidders think they're onto something good that nobody else has spotted. It is truly a piece of trash. Not even good for Halloween.
