Coif

Full mantle square face. Butted 16 gauge steel zinc plated round wire construction. 8mm internal ring diameter. This is the most economical construction style of maille, as the cost of labor-intensive riveting is avoided. Butted mail has limited historical precedent but is fine for general costuming and role-playing where strict construction authenticity is not a requirement. It is not recommended for weapons-contact re-enactment. High tensile steel.
