Coppergate Helmet
SKU: AH6730RVThe Coppergate Helmet is one of the most important Anglo-Saxon archaeological finds ever recovered, discovered by a mechanical digger operator in York, England, in May 1982 — worth correcting directly here, since older listing copy filed this piece under 'Medieval,' when it is a genuine 8th century Anglo-Saxon original. The original carries an inscribed Latin prayer naming its owner, 'Oshere,' and is considered the best-preserved of only a handful of Anglo-Saxon helmets known to survive anywhere in the world. This variant reflects a different finish treatment on the same celebrated Northumbrian design.
