This helmet closely resembles that from Mainz, which later was largely destroyed in WW II.
The helmet bowl is very deep, with almost vertical sides. The 'eyebrow' decoration is very elegant, with four embossed ridges. The brow-guard protection is missing but there is a hole in the centre of the forehead which would have carried the tang for this. The ear-protectors are also missing, although the rivet holes for these can still be seen.
Immediately above the front of the helmet bowl, there is a reeded copper alloy strip, with a raised central spine.
Each cheek guard is decorated with four ornate rivet surrounds.
The neck guard is almost horizontal, with two embossed steps.
