Default Kings Liverpool Militia (?) helmet DNW May lot 681

There are a couple of interesting Kings Liverpool home service pattern helmets in the DNW May auction.

I am not sure if this one is what they describe is as:

I think the helmet plate ( which looks silver and gilt to me ) is the last regular officers pattern ( 1911-1914 ) and not a militia item and that the helmet with all silver fittings is a Volunteer or Territorial item.

Interesting to hear if other members have opinions.

P.B.
