Coastal Artillery Officers Visor

[JG42]

Good afternoon,

Was looking for opinions on this Cap I've got, can't find any makers mark and was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this.

Thanks in advance,
John

Hello JG42,
KM is not my speciality, but I like the mottled fabric and I did a little research for these caps here on the forum and found specimens with different shades of green piping, one and two rings of piping around the centerband, leather and Vulkanfiber peaks with and without edging - so a lot seems to have been possible. Yours has a relatively high crown with a relatively short seam of the side-panels at the back. If original (hopefully the KM-cap specialists will chime in soon) it is in excellent condition.

Some examples can be found here:

Thanks ErWeSa, hopefully get some more feedback soon. Be nice to know more about this cap or have some more opinions on it.
