Hey everyone,
I need some help!
What are your thoughts on this lid? Not in my hands, but I'm curious about its origins. Supposedly "from a bunker in Russia." Green Hungarian M38 shell with white paint and an odd chinstrap and liner. I know that many of these helmets were used by Finland post war, but the liner and chinstrap don't match Finnish examples that I've seen.
The white paint looks old, but looks like it may be on top of much of the corrosion on the green paint. The string in the liner looks newer too, as does the chinstrap.
What are your thoughts on this one? An interesting case.
Thanks in advance!
Quinn
