There are problems with classifying this helmet. It has certain features that can be labelled as being of Celtic origin. However, it also resembles both the Imperial Gallic A and the Agen-Port, Type B helmets. It has been classified as the latter here, as it seems to be a closer match for this type, on balance.
The bowl of this helmet is very shallow compared to others of the type, particularly at the rear, where the helmet does not drop down to form a deep guard for the neck. The neck guard looks to have been added subsequently. Perhaps it was damaged and had to be cut down.
There is a single embossed ridge ('eyebrow') on the front of the helmet. The front of the helmet is also provided with a small peak.
There seems to be but a single embossed ridge at the occiptal region. At the side of the helmet, the metal would appear to have been forced outwards slightly, so forming a rudimentary ear guard.
The cheek guards are somewhat angular but are of the same general shape as others associated with this type of helmet. The hinge plates are attached to the helmet side with two conical/rounded rivets apiece. There is also a single decorated conical rivet in the centre of the cheek guard, near the front edge.
