WW2 mk3 British Helmet

Featured Replies

#1

Hi guys 

just wanted your opinions on this mk3 British helmet I bought from Arromanche a couple weeks ago. 
 

here’s what I know. 
I cannot find any markings on the shell, but the liner has:

CCL

1943

it is also a size 6 3/4

liner is also correct for period

 

the colour as you can see is a dark green with rust patches. Outside pics show true colouring. 
someone has written their name in that white paint we see so often in these period helmets, but too worn to work out. 
rivets are correct height for a mk3,

and the seam is butted together with a couple stamp marks. 
anyway I think it all lines up with legitimate period, and think I have a good piece.
If anyone knows more then I’d be delighted to hear😁

thankyou
