    Hello,
    Don't bother, it is a reproduction...wrong material, wrong airvents...wrong everything in fact
    Good idea to post this repro before buying it....good move for a new collector
    Thanks

    Can't comment on the cap itself but it looks like the insignia has been replaced.

    NG. This would be a higher end purchase due to rarity. I would start with something simpler and easier to authenticate. For example, the Luftwaffe "Schiffchen" is not rare and quite affordable. It would be a far better direction to go as a novice. Neil
