Morning Preston, thank you for the kind words - really nice gamer - Steiner Collectibles had several helmets and still has some jerseys. Purchased from them.
I am so jealous I can't even see straight. I may never find a Bucco Bruce.
I know what you mean my friend.I looked up and down for a vintage Raiders gamer.I asked on here & everybody that sells sports memorabilia on ebay and former players.I finally came across one last fall from a guy on ebay that didn't even have it listed.Also ask some of the Buc booster clubs.Don't give up you will get one

I really haven't been looking too long for one yet. I only got into the game used area about a year ago when I got by "flag" Buccaneers helmet but since then I have a pair of Mike Evans gloves and John Lynch cleats so the Bucs collection is coming along but that helmet would be the icing on the cake... someday.

And last but not least (well, depending on who #78 is )
Titans Game Worn Helmet signed by a couple random players (Blaine Bishop, Chris Sanders) - #78 sticker is inside helmet but there is no 3 digit letter code on the facemask, so I'm having difficulty assigning a date to the helmet.
Tom, you probably (well definitely) know a lot more about this than I do...here's a scan of what's on the facemask. I've never seen the "12-06K" coding...does that mean 12/2006 or what would that indicate, and is there another way to date the helmet if this code doesn't mean anything?
Preston, another nice looking Titans helmet. I sent a question to Riddell re the date code. I believe Ti is for titantium and that it was manufactured Dec 2006 - the "K" I do not know.
I have a William Hayes # 95 Titan gamer. Also a Riddell Revolution lid. The Riddell mask date code is "Riddell 02-11 C". Has the "Meets NOCSAE Standard" underneath and then a "Pat. No. 7,036,151".
With you facing the helmet - left side - the aforementioned is printed on the top bar - inside on the bar. On the top bar - left side - printed inside is the number 74912.
The helmet was manufactured Feb 2011.
My helmet manufacture date and face mask date match it appears.
That helps a bunch as I also assumed 12-06 meant December of 2006 but wanted to confirm. I was thinking "K" might have been a code for type of facemask because as you had mentioned, your William Hayes one has a "C" instead of a "K" - I did look on the inside of my helmet and all I saw was the engraved information I had taken a pic of. There is a "Ti" logo on the outside of the left of the facemask (if I'm facing the helmet) - but nothing else appears to be written/engraved anywhere on the facemask.
Is there anything I should look for on the inside of the helmet that would help? With this helmet (or at least the facemask) being from December 2006, I'm guessing it would either be worn that last month of the season or 2007, correct? If 2006, it would be DeQuincy Scott who was signed it looks like twice, first on September 3, cut September 5 and signed again October 26, cut December 24.
