Need help! Buying my first M/40 helmet :)

hello helmet pros,

Just got into collecting WW2 helmets and came across this on a bidding site, from the research I’ve carried out it seems real and an ideal first helmet to start with. However, I’ sure there are alot of experts here that are much better than me at determine if it is fake or real. The price is around $300 with 3 days before the auction ends. What do you guys think?

I recently picked up a Shell casing turned into a "Shot Glass." It had unusual markings and was hoping someone could identify the type, country and era this may have come from. Thanks.

Question Luftwaffe cockade wreath

dear gentlemen,

i picked up this cockade on a flea market last weekend, it was lying in a box of old "Bundeswehr"-patches.
The dealer wanted 15 for it, so i bought it as repro, but the sticker on its back made me wonder if it could
be authentic. So, before i put it on a cap and give it away again, i wanted to check back with the experts.
Could you give me your opinions, please?
Thank you very much in advance,
Helen
