The Czechoslovakiam helmet M/34. The full number of such helmets in Finnish Army (former German war booty) was up to 50000. Such helmets were used during 1941-44. This item was found on the75mm PAK 40 positions in June 1944 battlefields.

The inner leather parts were marked 1938. (The fifth leaf of it was lost by the previous owner somewhere on roads of the war.)
