I need 20-30 Lorica Segmentatas

Yes, you read right. I need a quote for a large number of Loricas. They need to be fairly authentic looking, but they do not need to be SCA legal, so 18 gauge steel schould be plenty enough. You will need to be willing to work through me and willing to ship to Germany. If you are a wholeseller for o...

This should work better. I have resized them to be a Maximum width of 800 pixels. It's my new camera's fault really, since its resolution is so much higher than my old.

14th Century German Pilgrim badges
