The Legends and Traditions of the Great War: Monte Grappa
Above is a link to the story of this all but forgotten battle of WWI. It has come to be known as Italy's Thermopylae. The helmet was found in the ice on that mountain about 15 years ago. The condition is quite good and there are areas where paint still clings to the metal.
As you can see, the impact was catastrophic.
