Default Help with helmet, origin?

Hi, I wonder if somebody could help me with the origin of this helmet I just found. To me it looks like a tibetan style, but when I look in the book Arms and armor of Tibet, I cant really see just the same style. It was sold as Mongol, but I have an impression that it may as well be Chinese, korean or manchu. Now, it has a written character on it that may give a hint to its origin, is it a tibetan or maybe san skrit character? Grateful for any and all information on this helmet.
