Robert, the cap with the Hochland badge is on what I think is a Canadian website. The display of same does not include its interior.

Yes, this is the incorrect RZM tag that Bob had mentioned. From what I have observed, these appear in ground up fakes, including tunics, that originate from Germany.

Yes that is a fake cap, ground up fake with a bad RZM tag and other red flags.

Correct, the one I got in 2008 was refunded and returned to the "dealer" I got it from with loosing some money rather my honor.

Check out a northern dealer more there in Euro currency.

For my knowledge the copy tries to represent Bund Oberland rather then Hochland.

have you ever seen a photo of cap with a edelweiss

I have also seen the Hochland badge on kyffhäuserbund visors worn as a traditions badge of sorts. (However, I cannot recall seeing one of this type on an SS visor).

I'm reviving this thread to illustrate the worth of this forum to serious collectors. I came across the thread by researching SS caps bearing edelweiss badges when I realized I was actually considering buying the very same cap in the opening post. Apparently this cap sold twice on emedals in 2013 then again in 2017. I recently discovered it for sale on another website and was considering vetting it here as a possible future purchase. It has such a clean look that it had me fooled if not for the Edelweiss badge that made me explore it more.
Let the buyer beware.....
