Golden chain mail is Physical Resistance plus 25; bronze plate mail plus 24. They both decrease your speed by the same amount, so they're pretty much equally good pieces of armor. For me, it came down to nothing more than a matter of aesthetics.

Actually if you want to get techinical:
Golden Chain Mail:
ac+3
weight: 45.000 kg
+22 physical resistance
Bronze Plate Mail
ac+4
weight: 40.000 kg
+20 physical resistance
That is the correct statistics for the two. As you can see, bronze plate mail is 5 kg lighter, and +1 more ac, with only 2 less physical resistance. So I think the obvious choice is bronze plate mail.
