The metal king helm has a {{Defence}} bonus of +70. There is only a single one in the entire game, which can be found in a {{chest}} in [[Mt. Zugzwang]]. The {{Hero 8}}, [[Bianca Whitaker]], {{Parry}}, [[Sancho]], and [[Tuppence]] can equip it, as well as many recruitable monsters. It can be sold for 22500 [[gold]] coins in the {{Super Famicom}} version, and 15000 [[gold]] coins in the remakes, though as it is the strongest helmet for many characters it is not recommended to sell it.
