That's a
great helmet Jerry. And a very awesome sword. The article posted below might be of interest to you. It is about the symbology of the Sutton Hoo helmet. The theory that the garnets above the left eye lacked gold foil backing to represent the missing eye of Odin.
It's been some time since I read it, but I remember enjoying it. Authored by Neil Price and Paul Mortimer. Two guys who know their stuff.
Cheers.
