I only have the info from Junkelmann:
The findspot is "supposedly" Orvieto and was bought 1930 by a collector? in London.
Junkelmann sees a similarity to the Detroit helmet in the contuniation of the crest reaching over the neck guard.
Bu he also implies that only an examination will confirme the authenticity of this helmet.
By the way, I just found a picture on flickr that also shows the Detroit helmet:

And here is the Ontario helmet:
