Sexy helm...what caused the dents? is it from normal fighting or something more vigorous?

Probably bears.

I think this was for sale before; $550 looks to be a very nice deal.

dents caused by a newb not knowing how to use a shield to block :) It was on sale before but I still need to get rid of it. It is a decent helm and looks nice. If I was fighting I would keep it but I am out of the SCA for awhile due to job related issues.

society minimum does not protect against a helmet getting dented to unusable in a short time frame.

Minimums don't last here in Atlantia. My wife had a helm turned into an accordian by our fighter practices. :shock:

I can understand a society minimum helmet not lasting long.
But, this is 14ga, not 16ga.

How thick do you think 14 g. is after it is dished? :wink:

By that same ilk... "but this is Atlantia, not Meridies." :twisted: Dern Atlantians! I hear they're a bunch of thugs! Even heard some of them like to put dents in shiny new helmets! :shock:

That helmet is gorgeous. Someone's gonna pick up a nice looking piece of kit!

I can see I will not be able to sell this helm in this forum. If a mod could please close or delete this thread it would be appreciated. Thank you.

If I had the cash I would pick it up. Someone should buy it, but right now I have noticed that armour sales are way down. A sign of the times,
