There are a number of items which one has to wonder how the big D got hold
of, considering he's only been collecting them for 50 years.
However Gurth made a good point, there are very few pieces of armour from
before the 14th century here in GB which are in any condition, those which
do exist are in the Royal armouries. Richard the Lionheart died in France
so AFAIK it's debatable as to whether his armour would have been brought
back. If it weren't it would have fallen to the French armourers to
maintain it. Considering the revolution it's unlikely it would have
survived at all.
So is it possible that an item made in the fourth age could have retained
its "abilities" during the fifth? IIRC Richard was killed while on a recon
op and unarmoured, he was famous though for being in the front line so it's
quite surprising that he didn't die earlier.
Unless his armour was in fact a magical artifact from the fourth age...
Quite an interesting thought.
