Extremely Rare Authentic German WWI M16 helmet This is an original German M16 helmet, used in the Bulgarian royal army. It was made in Germany during WWI, to order from the Bulgarian royal army. This is known because the very rare Bulgarian emblem/decal still remains and the split rivet pins were replaced with ones made of tin. Bulgaria became allies of Germany in both world wars, so a large part of their military equipment was made in Germany. The helmet shown here has survived the two world wars and 45 years communist rule in Bulgaria when all German relics of the war were taken and destroyed. Now-a day’s only single pieces can be found in such great condition and are highly wanted for private collections. There is a WWI Bulgarian army decal that can be seen. Colour is a greyish green; there is a possibility that this helmet was designated for some special army unit. Scarce item! Very Rare find for every helmet collection!
