The Kops plateau helmet masks (serie of three) all show silver sheet glued to an (layered) iron form. There are no traces of gilding on these helmets.
The river waal find of an helmet with repousse hair decorations and the bustes on the browband is made in copper alloy and then silverplated, on top of which gold plating is applied for decorations.
The so called 'Gordon' mask from Leiden is also of cupric alloy but shows no indications of silverplating/tinning.
