Could you teel us what it says on the plate of the second helmet.
Also the letters in the center; I think it can be Qeen Mary's Surrey Yeomanry.

Hi Nicholas, welcome to the forum. These are completely outside of my collecting experience so I cannot offer any advice.
But please show your German helmets in our WW1 section of the forum.
Cheers, Ade.

REG ASPARA TERRENT??
First 3 letters appears like NEC to me ...
and
Nec Aspera Terrent means ;''Difficulties be damned'' and is the motto of
The Prince of Wale's own Regiment of Yorkshire, but the badge doesn't correspond!!??

and i also have this flag top or whatever it's called, it says HOBSON & SON's underneath.

That ...I don't know anything about it!
Also the makers of the helmets do not ring a bell ...to me! But they are of a fine quality, don't wurry.
Thise is as far as I can help you.
To know what they are worth you will have to look at auction results, I could tell you what they where worth in the 80 'ties, but do not know for now!
