Postwar west german police helmet, from the 60's as far as I remember
It has no rivets, and the vent holes are bigger
Can anyone id the coat of arms?

Thanks guy's , yeah i thought it looked like a m40 imitation of some kind.

Indeed it may not be difficult to convert it for WWII reenactment, but it would be needed a repro liner of the correct size
Removing the postwar liner, drilling the 3 holes for the rivets and installing the new liner
Honestly, may be much better to buy a reproduction and leave it as it is (cheaper choice), but if the owner feels skillful and likes DIY...it could be worth a try
