I think they were trying to replicate the Carnuntum armour but, as Evan said, they assembled the scales upside down. In addition, the middle pair of holes on the original plates are located closer to the flat edge, rather than the curved edge. The original would also have been stapled to a foundation of linen or felt; the above reconstruction has no foundation at all.
