2nd Veteran's Badge from 1890 house. Roman or Greek?

[100acre]

I went back to the 1890 house today for a couple of hours. I didn't find a whole lot of anything except for mostly nails and some trash. Then I found this little baby. It would appear that with the crest on the helmet that it's some sort of Roman Greek or Trojan character. On the back is what's left of a mounting pin. I set it next to the badge found the other day which is the the shield. The quarter although not from this site dates to around the same time that the house was built.
