It has spots of oxidation, brass dome rivets and two holes drilled high on the chest. The engraved script on the bottom of the interior has been largely struck out. However, it is barely possible to discern "Chatellerault". 2) This breastplate is much lighter and has rolled edges at the neck and arms. It has a pair of steel anchors. The edges are lined with holes. A 1" crack has started at the bottom of the midline. All surfaces are oxidized and the interior has heavy pitting.
