Iron, with brass sheet decorations. It is very similar in form to the Italic 'C' type.
The crest attachment, a variant of 'twist-on' type has a T-shaped slot.
The reinforcing peak (of bronze) is flattened and tapers to a thin forward edge that is notched at intervals, indicating that it may have suffered several blows.
All the rivets are pear-shaped.
The decorative brass work applied at the rear of the helmet covers the reinforcing ridges (3) and continues down over the neck guard. Similar strips cover the hinge plates of the cheek guards.
At the centre of the neck guard there is a carrying handle with pear-shaped terminals attached by split pins passing through two bosses washers. Underneath, on each side, are riveted chin tie-rings.
