Armatura della Colchide

[Cincinnatus]

This isn't even a competent fake, its a fantasy piece made by someone who knows very little about Roman armor other than what is seen in Hollywood films. In the art business these aren't even consider forgeries, it isn't even trying to be authentic, these are offered to tourists daily in many Bazaars and Souks on the off chance that someone will actually think they have found a treasure and spend some money on it. Something like this would never fool a serious collector, I'm sure once it gets in front of someone competent, it will be dismissed as such, (also C-14 tests are for organic material, not metal).
