This is a nice salty PG officer, a waffenfarbe missing from a lot of collections.

Very nice Erich. As you say, one missing from a lot of collections.
I have known "dealers" to felt tip pen a white one, and change it to Green, just to make an extra buck
It's nice to see an original example. These are so rare and so attractive to boot with that lime green waffenfarbe. Someone displayed a mint Pz Grenadier feldmutze alter art on another forum that was one of the most striking caps I've ever seen!
Another super cap Erich thanks for posting !!

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
My favorite 'farbe--reminds me of my favorite 1971 'cuda color, "sassy grass green".
“Show me the regulation, and I’ll show you the exception.”
Thanks gentlemen for the kind comments.

That would be this one I believe; Paul Sack collection.
A great cap. Sooo hard to find.
