Need a little help IDing this one

[Deflatermaus]

I was wondering if this one was a post war replica or not. I got it in a hat lot, and I gave it the uv treatment with no glow. I’m not up on Luftwaffe caps, but I’m guessing it’s a repro considering the poor application of the insignia. Thanks in advance for your help. Sorry for the sideways photos...

Your instincts are correct--it is a fake with a twist.
it is an old fake called "Altestes" made in the 50's/60s in Munich by a Dr Breuer.
The LW ones had metal EM/NCO insignia on them originally.
However, on this one, the insignia has been replaced by Pakistani bullion of a recent vintage.
