Thank you Dean for your most generous remarks. One does try to help and inform other collectors, and I am pleased you found the illustration of interest.
Now, here is a slightly interesting question: from a remark made to me by the late Mr Carmen I believe there are a number of other hallmarked helmet plates out there. So, has any member an example in their collection?
Would any member like to speculate upon which Regiments might have been inclined to commission such items?
Enjoy.
