Excellent answer! I feel very strongly that helmets like these are unjustly overlooked. Hundreds of books about German Third Reich helmets, half a book about Danish (well, just a couple of pages about the M48, really!). and there are many interesting points and many questions. You have done a great job in making all this more understandable.
There's a whole collection to be made of these, but they are, I think, genuinely hard to find and in some cases - the original Danish M48 shells - actually rare. Unfortunately I have gone though my little mound of a dozen or so Danish helmets and already found that I definately don't have a genuine army liner, and that even though I do have some non-magnetic shells they are all 1960s dated Schuberths. I'm kind of guessing that these things are not much easier to find in Denmark than they are in Wales. Still, inspiration to keep looking.
