| Helmets that meet the standards should have a sticker or an
impress somewhere stating the fact.

| There is no sticker on this one. I wonder if the model came out
before the stickers became available.

| I doubt it. The testers would require it be put on there, would
the company like the exposure. Ansi or Snell Certification isn't
something you hide.

| There are some helmets that are identical to certified helmets,
but the helmet was manufactured before the big certification
thing. So, these have no sticker...

| Until a couple of years ago, few if any helmets were "certified"...
although many would meet todays standards if tested.
If the helmet has a hard plastic shell, an expanded polystyrene
foam liner (about 3/4" thick should do) and a strong chin strap,
it would probably meet both the ANSI and SNELL certification
requirements.
