Original WW-II German MA Helmet Shell Found Above UK's D-Day 1944'Gold' Beach

A great example of a June 6th 1944. German relic in the shape of an. 42 Marineartillerie Coastal Artillery Helmet Shell. As recovered from deep hedgerows above the. British'Gold' D-Day Invasion beach on the Normandy beachhead.

Solid & somewhat heavy shell with no rust holes. All three pins & its helmet liner-band have long gone. However there is the distinct outline of a decal. (as caught in the photo flash).
