Great work indeed! The decoration is repousse work I guess ... ?


Mainz gladius - munazio planco - 02-03-2014

Yes Martin the decoration is embossing work ( repousse).the plates are from reperts different,some from Vindonissa and some from Wiesbaden.


Mainz gladius - Flavivs Aetivs - 02-03-2014

I have pics of the original scabbards if you'd like me to post them.


Mainz gladius - munazio planco - 02-03-2014

Thank you,I. Have too from Miks book and from Fougere book.


Mainz gladius - Flavivs Aetivs - 02-03-2014

Yeah I have 'em from Mik's.

I think it's in these 3 images (not 100% sure, there's a lot of them...)

In fact the point is the A783 and the other plates are this horrible destroyed B 328-112

Very good observator my friend...
