Hello,

Here is my 17th century pikeman helmet, around 1630-1650. Used in particular during the English civil war from 1642 to 1651. It is a helmet of the morion-cabasset type, or also called war hat. Its manufacture is made in two parts. There were once cheek protectors. There is a manufacturer marking which remains to be identified.

Very nice war hat, Thomas.
Such a pity that the mark is not (yet) identified.
