Hi, to anyone who is interested in lorica hamata i can recommend:
L. Hansen, Die Panzerung der Kelten (Kiel 2003)
He has in his catalogue also roman hamata finds.
For Chester he mentions only three fragments of stamped and riveted rings:
Manning, Catalogue of the Romano-Britisch Iron Tools, Fittings and Weapons in the British Museum (London 1985, 146
Butted rings were found in Dura Europos, but are attested there only for the bronze rings and these are probably all from edge trimming (James 2010, 110-111).
In Thorsberg are some butted bronze rings, as it seems also from the edge, but whether these are roman oder germanic is still a question...
There are some more examples from Maiden Castle, Woodeaton (bronze!), Carnuntum (bronze!) and perhaps Stanwick.
