Quote:Hello everybody,

I am new to this forum. The following additional information may be of interest for the dating of the Imperial Italic D helmet:

The Krefeld helmet (now kept in the musuem Burg Linn) appears to be very similar to the known specimen except that it replaces the eagles on the front side with cut copper alloy EYES (not eye brows). To my knowledge this is one of only two early imperial helmet with eyes instead of brows (the other one being at Wiesbaden).
Yes! Thanks! Big Grin

And as someone's only going to say it anyway, any chance of signing your posts with at least your real first name? Welcome aboard.
