Very nice Paul, certainly looks like the right size for a shrapnel ball. Hopefully the wearer was not hit by any other ones.

This one has a great look to it and good to find one with nice dry paint as this is how they mostly were when originally painted. Looks like it may have sat on the battlefield for a short while before being picked up perhaps. I read in Ernst Junger’s book Storm of Steel, that he was hit by a projectile and it knocked him off his feet such was the force. I agree regarding the impact most likely may have popped the vent lug out. I have an M35 where the rivet was also popped out. This one certainly has real lot of character. Congratulations!

I'm sure that lug popped out from the impact.
Great helmet
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

For sure the owner would have heard that one hit!
