This helmet is made from 18 gauge mild steel and polished to shine.  It would usually have been worn over a mail coif, which protected the lower parts of the head, throat and neck. The outside has extra pieces of steel riveted around the bottom, front, back, and sides.  On top there is even a decorative flower to hide the intersections.  Inside is a leather suspension liner with an adjustable chin strap complete with a brass buckle. Height: 9 Inches.
