Found some more pictures that i had, about mail from Estonia. They are of low quality, since i think i made them with a shellphone camera, and even with the best instruments im still a rather bad photo maker. :surprised:
Mail from 14 century, picture made in a museum through class so....
closeup of the same thing:
Probably a peace of bronze edge trimming from some mail. Whats weird about this peace, is taht although all the rings have holes for rivets, only 2 or 3 rivets are left. Most rings have just empty holes.
A mailshirt of unknown origin and age. Id say 15 century maby.
Weird headgear armour of horse-people :surprised: Unkown origins, but it is said that they might be from Russian Kasak troops from the Napoleonic wars.
The metal disc in the middle is rather small. About 12 cm (less than half a feet) in diameter.
Also a prettier version of the same armour:
