I'd say the helmet, "paint", and decal are all original....as is what's left of the liner. The chin strap may be original, but looks too good for the condition of the helmet so maybe replaced/repro. IMO this one is "well used & alittle abused" but still collectible condition.... better than many LW decals.... so "price range" is the only real question.... I'd say "lower/mid range" value/collectibility-wise! (What that is you'll have to decide)

Thanks John for your information, really helped me before i can buy it , One thing i wish to add is that here in malta we used to have a lot from this kind of helmets due to attacks from italians and germans, and before people started to collect this items they used to use them as flower pots , thats maybe the reason
