If you are looking to collect TR headgear, I’d suggest you join the paying membership of the forum. This open up many members only sections on headgear. The reference is well worth the 25$ a year, it will save you that many times over. Welcome to the forum, sorry about the bad news.
CBH told you that this item doesn't have much chances. I would like to add to his observations that the badges on this cap are not for Afrika-caps (green instead of beige backing).
For originals see here (best source I know of, free download, 3 parts), pp 217 ff.:
