A fake 17th Indian Div badge, on a South African Mk2 that looks like it has been used post war by the Greeks. They have added British Mk3 chin strap lugs.

All the outside paint is fake, the inside is probably Greek post war.
The liner, nut & bolt, and chin strap are probably ww2 British.
Did you get it on Ebay?

Also hooks for chinstrap is not a standard SA WW2. I see in other case, every in a post war use of SA MKII.
