Anybody have a link to or picture of this efigy?

I'm trying to find it because a conical with ball on top is what I'm wanting to do for SCA combat.

Have you tried looking in http://effigiesandbrasses.com/?

I didn't see it right away under the 1220-1250 time period.

Good luck!

Searched effigy and brass for almost an hour before I called for help.

I don't recall seeing anything like that in an Effigy...

Is this kind of what you are looking for? Just a historical reference to it?

I can't even think of an effigy with a conical helm. Maybe you are actually looking for some other kind of statuary?
