Hello, I recently bought this Swiss M/18 for $30. One thing I noticed is that the strap that goes around the cover of the helmet has a different camouflaged pattern than the cover which is contrary to what I usually see on these helmets. Also, the liner pads have darkened. I believe this has to do with age but I looked around and saw that most M/18 liners are more brown/tan than this. I don't believe that this is an early M/18 because of the lack of a M mark on the back of the inside of the helmet and the lack of a liner band in the back. And I believe that the cover is post WW2 but I am not sure on when the helmet was used/made. Any help would be appreciated.
