coif with square neckline mixed riveted rings 6 m Thorshamers Sabatons from the 14th andThe chainmail coif appeared at least as early as the 11th century AD. Chainmail coifs were worn either on their own or beneath a helmet. Many depictions, such as those in the Morgan Bible from 1250, show the chainmail coif fitting closely around the head. Leather laces were sometimes employed at the top to improve the fit, whilst additional laces could fasten the lower edge of the coif to the gambeson or hauberk, keeping the coif securely in place.
