Formed of a main plate and a pair of ear-defences. The main plate is medially ridged, except at the brow, and narrows to a point at its lower end which extends to just below the level of the eyes. Its sides have large semi-circular cut-outs for the eyes. The cut-outs are slightly flanged outwards above the eyes. Their lower corners are rounded and flow into the lower edge of the main plate. The cut-outs and the lower edge are decorated with an inward turn notched with pairs of transverse lines and accompanied by a recessed border. The border contains fifteen holes for lining-rivets, all now occupied by modern, round-headed brass rivets, except the central one which is vacant and has been enlarged. The centre of the brow is fitted with a modern, round-headed brass rivet occupying a hole for the attachment of a missing decorative escutcheon. The slightly convex sides of the main-plate, above the level of the eyes, are each fitted with a pair of modern, round-headed brass rivets occupying holes for the attachment of missing side-plates. The straight upper edge of the main plate is pierced at its centre with a pair of rivet-holes for the attachment of a missing poll-plate. The upper corners of the main plate are cut away in a concave curve to receive the gutter-shaped, pointed ear-defences. The ear-defences have flanged lower edges that fit within the main plate and are in each case attached to it by three modern, round-headed brass rivets. The flanges are cusped at the riveting-points.
