French M26 colour

Hello,

Here’s a French helmet I’ve just bought, it was only after it arrived that I realised the colour is much darker than the pre-war green. Could this be a late war (post liberation) repaint or do you think it’s been repainted recently?

The badge has a different colour so probably added not too long ago.

Sorry about the photo quality, there’s either too much sunlight or not enough and thanks for any comments.
Tony
