Rarity of M1 helmets and liners.

around the bottom of the entire pot has a funky green if that what you meen but i see what looks like sort of a camo look.

Ahhhh I see. Even if not original it for sure displays well. Really, we can never be totally sure for any helmets. But it's pretty. Sort of like those pacific theatre medic lids.

[patches3]

yes. what interests me to find out now is about the old circle with white remaining. can you tell me when this was produced? the number is 90C

[Gunakibomb]

I heard you can't for sure date a helmet purely dated on a heat stamp, but that sounds like a low production number. I'd say 1941 or early 42?

i got a chart froma member of the forum and its shows my helmet being placed between february and march 1942

[Gunakibomb]

Very nice. I need to find a chart to date my navy fixed bale. One day.

[patches3]

[Gunakibomb]

Yes I'll private message it to you.
