Waffen SS visor cap with orange piping

[MrOrange360]

Hey guys my father in-law was a WWII antique's dealer, and collector. I’m trying to figure out if it’s real or not.

It is not. What it wants to be is a brown piped concentration camp guard cap. It is one of the fakes with this distinctive stamp on the sweatband - I don't remember where these came from originally. Furthermore the chinstrap makes it an EM/NCO-cap, yet it seems to have a velvet centerband for officers.

Just found it, see here: HJ- headgear .Junior leader's visor cap ?

SS and RZM markings - fake or real?

And even from those poor quality photo's I can see the metal insignia are fake as well
