Textbook US Navy M1 front seam fixed bale helmet in untouched condition. This is a typical early to mid war US M1 helmet with a front seam and fixed bales. The helmets chinstrap has always been over the rear part of the shell as can be seen by the untouched verdigris, patina and oxidation on the shell.
