These are pictures of my second Portuguese Model 940 helmet.
Capacete M940 = Helmet model 940 = 1940
The difference between the two models is that the 940/63 received a new liner design similar as the liner used in the American M1, its called Riddel type.
I haven't found any markings within this helmet but I was able to find this helmet has been made by
Fábrica de Braço de Prata.
see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C3%A1brica_de_Bra%C3%A7o_de_Prata
.
Again more information on this helmet can be found on my favorit web site:
