Roman Use of the Attic Helmet

[Robert Vermaat]

But then recently, just a few days ago, after losing hope of finding any pictures of real original artefact helmets of this kind, I found two helmets, which are said to be real archaeological finds, in a private collection site called Roman Officer Permanent Collection.

We have seen and discussed these helmets before. The common opinion of them is that they are fakes, sold over the internet to collectors such as these. There is no information available that ties any of these helmets (or many other objects in that collection) to known excavations, no information that can in any way vouch that they are, indeed, anything bot modern fakes.
