It is my opinion that someone tried to make a K-Pattern (as seen here: http://pickelhaubes.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=10053" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). The liner is wrong - the buckram looks like it was just randomly folded and not done with a machine. The foil lining wasn't ever used on colonial pattern helmets, but I think is there to hide the stitching on the inside of this helmet.
