Any stamps on the lining as far you know? Eagle is not original to the cap IMO.

It looks like a genuine light weight M43 but the eagle's not original to it I'm afraid!

eagle that is affixed to this cap is for the EM's tunic,,,should you wind up with this cap,,,i have the correct eagle/bull's eye for sale...

Hi chaps and thanks for the information!
I'll pass on this one then.
I was also sent a few photos of a visor so I'll post those pics in a bit.
Thank you once again

Jay.

Looks more like the light fabric a few lightweight LW M43s have been made of!

I've since been told by the seller that the adler has been sewn on by hand so no way of knowing when it was applied.
Shame as I can't seem to find another one of these anywhere
