Chinstrap is only about 15% intact. 2) ARMY. An M1940 battle helmet with a dark gray/green-painted finish and no decals. The inside rear is stamped "DN194" and the inside left is stamped "Q64". There is no liner or chinstrap, but the band is present. CONDITION: The helmet finish is strong with minor oxidation. The band also has oxidation but remains complete. (02-23650/BF). $500-700.
