The reason for my question is that i have some beautyfull miniatures here, Sassanids and Roman. It´s no problem to convert the sassanids to parthian with a bit greenstuff, but my "problem" are the romans. They are in lorica hamata, some with apron, and have a mix of Montefortino-, Coolus- and Imperial Gallic Helmets, but all with the old style crests. I thought that this crest was wrong with the imperial gallic helmet, but searching for it i found 2 helmets with a Montefortino / Coolus style knob. This seems to be the retrofitted ones you are talking about.
Thanks for the answers.
Herbert
