M-37 Enlisted Dress Cover Varient

[Brig]

here's an interesting varient I picked up. very lightweight, notice the details and the rear. almost looks as if it would be marked, but it is not, probably a private purchase piece. notice the 'washer', a small disc with two teeth to stabilize. interesting to me, thought I'd share

Fairly crude looking cast. You say lightweight, any thoughts as to material? Is it flashed lead/tin or is the color indicative of the material it is made from?

I want to say that the sun reflection on my porch caused a glare to look more crude than it actually is, it's not too bad. I'm horrible at guessing materials, but it may actually be really thin brass. possibly tin, but it would be thick then. definately not lead. here are the actual auction images
