When you assemble your belt, make sure you place the pugio frogs correctly...
...Another small point, if you are depicting a soldier of Leg XIIII Gemina. The other titles were earned thanks to it being the main unit involved in Boudicca's defeat. Thus from AD61 onwards it was Legio XIIII Gemina Martia Victrix (the twin, warlike and victorious).

Thank you very much for all the information. I purchased a Pugio last night. I still have to tin my belt plates. I got frogs and apron studs from CLANG on the way as well. I will take your advice when laying out my spacing and wearing tthe Pugio.
As for the the Legio XIIII, It is the name the Roman reenactors local to me have adopted. I have just begun researching this Legion myself. This information has also been helpful to correct my time frame, thank you.
