Good Morning Kev.....

I had been looking for one of these helmet plates for a appox. 15 years and finally found one and if you paid any less than $450.00 you got yourself a very good deal....

Well, they're not making them anymore, so arguably its worth whatever you are willing to pay to own what may well be a unique piece or, at worst, one of less than a half dozen in the world. And I don't use that as a justification for dealers gouging collectors, just as a comment on collecting and collectors. I had a friend who collected to the Royal sussex and would cheerfully have mortgaged his house to get a Sussex VC. Crazy? Not sure.
