I have never heard of such practice with Adrian m15 or m16.
My idea was about a modification made by the veteran to fix them at the wall. I have never seen such practice with russian helmets, but I saw many Adrian (in France and Italy) modified postwar with holes to hang them up. It was simply another clue (but not a great one) that the shell came from a normal Adrian m15 which was later altered.
A useless disquisition from me, this helmet is bad because of many other features

Hello Marcel,
I have already seen one like this in the past, but in my opinion it is not russian.
It is a model 26 Adrian, so I think there are no chances that it was issued to RKKA, not mentioning the star cockade that has a pattern which I have never seen before on a Russian helmet.
But maybe it is original, related to other armies. I don't know if, for example, m26 were issued to Spain during Civil war...
Best regards
Gabriele

Hello,
I confirm it is a M26 shell.
Funily enough it is the 3d one is a short period of time. On the other their was a number on the star
Best
Bruno
