M42 CKL64 SD HEER

DESCRIPTION 
Here is a beautiful example of a mid-war everyday man's fighting helmet with a near perfect Heer adler decal. Unfortunately this helmet never came with it's original chinstrap and suffers from some garage white paint transfers on the top dome. Rear lot 2669 places the manufacturing date to early 1942 according to Brian Ice's lot data book. A great all around investment piece.


$1100 SOLD

GERMAN HELMET FACTORY PRODUCTION CODES
(Every original German helmet produced from 1935 to 45 had two factory stampings punched into the side and rear or both in the rear.  The alpha numeric number refers to the factory location and the inside metric circumference in centimeters.  The rear lot number refers to the production run and was used as a quality control measure. The font styles used at each factory were slightly different but highly consistent throughout the war and so fakes or reproductions will either not have these numbers at all or they will use the wrong font style or letter spacing and so are easily identified as post war made.)
