Post war buttons often have a year on them. Diamond patches and tan lining usually appear from the late 1950s.
Check the grey band for a year, sometimes they appear there.
It's a very odd hat - looks like it has piping but is otherwise khaki. Maybe it's a theatre prop or civilian hat?

I looked at both buttons no dates, they also seem to match the older button type? I agree the hat is very odd, however I do believe it to be real as the seller I know personally. He believes it to be immediate post war (47-55 era) field cap with a custom attached visor (perhaps soldier wanted old hat and new visor?). Basically he has no idea either.

I agree that this cap seems to be of the M58, but I am confused as to the differing color (light kahki) and black piping present on the furajka. Not sure if it is just a rare factory variant, perhaps private purchase?
