What type of helmet is this? It seems like a Vietnam era helmet to me? What does MVl on the bottom of the liner mean? Is this original? Somebody told me that this is a paratrooper helmet.
How much is it worth?

Re: Vietnam Helmet?
On the liner it was stamped combat type 11, 7th Dec. 1965., 8(size)......
Re: Vietnam Helmet?
Is the seam on the helmet at the front or the back of the helmet. Because the lid looks a lot older than the liner.
Re: Vietnam Helmet?
The seam is at the back of the helmet rim.
Re: Vietnam Helmet?
yeah i would say a very well used Vietnam issue helmet it has the anchor stamp on the chinstrap buckle. the liner does seem to be in better condition then the shell & has the leather sweatband missing so maybe they weren't originally together & the extra chinstrap meant it would have been used by the air cav.
I have the same thing.very used shell.airbourne chinstraps with hardware black stamped p.paint over the pea green paint.rust.liner is airbourne too with. M v l stamped inside crown. Who is the maker of the liner ?
Marmac Industries.
