Hi Francois,
You must read the forum rules; linking photos from web hosts (hot links) is not the adequate procedure. This time i will save them to a hard disk and upload them back with the forum attachment features; something you will have to do yourself next time. I will also move this thread to the Europen section, where it is better placed. |

Hello François,
You have a nice and original lobster tail helmet there , as every part seems to have the 4 dots I think they are simply markings used by the armory to mark parts that were made to fit together for induvidual helmets. kind regards Ulfberth |

Thank you for always adding these observations as it really helps to know what to look for in these items. While the books can tell us a lot on history and typology etc. they seldom give us these often almost nuanced clues on authentication. |
