Helmet details are as follows: I believe this helmet to be a M 1916 German War Helmet. It was manufactured in 1916 in Thale, Germany by a firm called Eisenhuttenwerke (E.T.) Therefore Eisenhuttenwerke, Thale. The size is a 62, which is in centimeters. Therefore the engravinginside the helmet at the left temple states E.T. 62. (Manufacturer and size). There are no other numbers engraved any where elsein this helmet? The metalrimmedhelmet is green in color with slightbrown undertones (see photos), and is believed to be original paint and has never been cleaned, re-touched, or painted. The helmet has no dents.The total weight of the helmet is 2.7 pounds. This helmet has the original chin strap attached (which is rare) and has never been cleaned or oiled. The originalleatherliner is still attached by two of the three original split pins, one pin is missing. Liner is a bit soiled withsweat, dirt, ageand etc. and has never been cleaned or altered.
