NOTE: Many of the Helms pieces were unidentified with their source information having been lost through the years. Some could very well be from major events, or a special "famous" donor. However, through photo analysis we have able to verify items previously unidentified by Helms to be very important artifacts. Do your own research and you may find some real treasures.
