Good morning to all,
I share with you my latest acquisition I have done just yesterday, it is this Aussie Mk2 helmet in fair condition, you notice that has been used intensively because there is some slight bruising on the top.
Its original color khaki-green remains inside while on top and below the brim was repainted with the brush again using the khaki-green color.
The Mk2 liner is in very good condition and the cross shaped crown is one with the round hole, I think it's called "second type."
-shell: Commonwealth Steel "CS 13094" marked
-chinstrap lugs: Mk2 type, "1940" marked
I seem like a good helmet and are always very difficult to find for me; also it was missing in my collection the variant with chinstrap lugs Mk2.
It would be interesting to understand in what period and war front it may have been used.
Every your opinion is very welcome and I thank you in advance.
Best regards
Roberto
