Berber Headdress?

I don't think it's silver, it may be silver plated copper. It has a hallmark on the back of all three main elements (see other photo). Does anyone have any information on this headdress? Much appreciated

    Thank you Ayis for sharing this information. Don't go crazy trying to look for it. You'll find it when you stop looking! That's what happens with me any way.
