Quote:Having made the Wiesenau 369 (Gallic D) I would like to dedicate this kind of fastener to Ludwic Lindenschmit, for it was found inside that helmet when it came out of the river at Mianz. In the link to it I fitted the brass ring for there was a recess at the bottom of the truncated cone, Lindenschmit was not aware at the time just what it was but I consider it to be what I show here.

Truely amazing isn't it!
