is it a pilots visor perhaps? it has the corresponding colors associated with aerial visors i have seen before on many other caps

Hi,
don't know what this is, but at least the visor is not that old - 1970s I'd guess, if not younger. Would need some pictures of the inside and the underneath of the visor (the cover obviously is made from plastic and this kind of plastic didn't exist in the 30s 40s).

i stumbled across this belgian gendarmerie visor on ebay and i think the crown is pretty similar and i dont believe its plastic i think it could be celluloid or something and next to the belgian is another danish m52 visor the wear looks way too old for it being a 70+ visor and the cord is one of the early ones i have seen them on pre 1900 and all the way to the 40s so im gonna wait n see if someone else have a little more info

Right you are! Menwhile you could check this: D or that for the cords: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...an%2C_2006.jpg

Celluloid, by the way, would not shine, not be black and not endure 70 years.

ok so its a danish railroad visor from the 50-60s? so know my question is, is it worth 100 swedish kronor about 8-9 euros

[ErWeSa]

Well, in my opinion it is. Presumably somebody tinkered with it, obviously badges are missing/do not fit. If you can get the original badges and cap cord for not more than what the cap costs I think 100 Kronor for the cap are O.K. After all it is a nice cap.
