I think the Wappen is made of aluminum foil

Yes indeed. Useful if you get a melting fuse on your vintage ambulance!

No, the true emblem.

True emblem, but from bad (sour) ground. And the helmet body is new made.

The Wappen looks like brass on my monitor. Weren't Garde shako plates silver, yet Garde hussar plates brass?

The side vents look odd, too.
