Do you mean you think in the sculpture the crest might had been front-to-back? First,we have inability to depict the profile(especially in crests),for example we also see the face of the shields,not the profile. Second, we have two long tails in the crest, something purposeless and inpractical, and third,the first of the three shielded hoplites has also a trensverse crest,depicted in the same way.Only this time the hair are not wavy and we see that the left tail goes in the other side of the helmet.These are some of the reasons that make me think it is a tranverse crest. Dimitri,is there a way to cut and glue the crest in the oposite way?
