German WWII Kriegsmarine Coastal Artillery officer M43 cap in Feldgrau wool with a couple of very minor moth nips on the top and rear. Late Celluoid gold piping and eagle, with a bullion cockade. Eagle and cockade are nicely hand applied, and while original, have been reapplied. The lining shows a trace of an old machine stitch line in the shape of an eagle. Buttons have been reapplied as well, as the buttons holes are just slits, and the pull down end appears to have been shortened and resewn by hand. Rayon lining shows modest wear around the rim with light staining throughout. No markings are visible, and there are two small wear holes in the front. CONDITION: Insignia and front buttons have been reapplied. Overall good to excellent
