Default Brodie Helmet Insignia

I have an old brodie helmet which I was told was South African and from World War two, but the reminiscence of an insignia does not look like anything South African, that I can fined. Could this maybe be Rhodesian?

Hi,

Not south african for me but it seems to be the dutch lion worn by the Princess Irene Brigade during WW2.
