Recently picked up a nice unissued mkiv helmet.Now the liner is 1945 dated...the markings on the shell are very faint and difficult to read as the liner wont come out (ltd fastner stuck fast!)as much as I can see it reads: BMB -----
F 5--3 MKIV
The shell is a nice bronze/brown colour with silica added outside.My question is, is it a 45 dated shell?I've compared the shell stamp to my other 50's dated mkiv's and the BMB stampings are smaller on all of them.I'll get some pics up if you like but its a pretty unremarkable thing!
