Difference in Gallic \'G\' Centurion and Gallic \'H\' Centurion
#1
Hi Guys,

I'm new to Roman helmets and I wanted to know whats the difference between a Gallic 'G' Centurion Helmet and a Gallic 'H' Centurion Helmet. They sort of look the same to me. Also, which one would you rather buy?

Thank you,

Amit :?

I like the more definite sculpting on the Gallic H.

Salve,

If your talking about the deepeeka versions there's virtually no difference other than the shape of the eyebrows. However the real things were quite different to look at. But don't forget it's only us modern guy's that call them G's and H's.
