Imperial Gallic D Helm
#1
Have a question on Imperial-Gallic D helm, the one destroyed in WWII. 
Hilary & John Travis say in "Roman Helmets" that "the leading edge of the peak was inlaid with a bronze herringbone pattern".
Are there any sources (texts, drawings) from the time the helm was still intact that give more details on how that bronze pattern looked like?
There is a fairly nice reconstruction, yet I see at least 3 elements that do not match the orginal https://www.royaloakarmoury.com/portfoli...-gallic-d/ 
Anyone has an idea how accurate is the peak's inlay here compared to the original?
