    Question Waffen SS Prinz Eugen division cap

    Hello,
    I bought this cap today at a local trusted antique shop
    the seller told me it was a cap used by Bosnian Muslims of the Prinz Eugen SS division.
    Since I live on the Balkans, war relics from WW2 are not very rare.
    However this one caught my eye as it looked authentic, but I am afraid it might be a reproduction.
    It is very clean and smells nice, probably because the seller washed it at some point. Despite that, on the inside of the cap a lot of dirtiness is still noticeable


    I thought this guy might have sold me some old hunting cap, but then I googled the Prinz Eugen division and I found out from the old photos that caps like these were used. There aren't many records of this division, only a few photos of soldiers, all taken in the summertime (where caps like these were not present)
    Take a look and tell me what you think!

    NOTE!: The swastika emblem is not real, the seller told me he put it there to get more sales from tourists

    Not even close to a WW2 WSS vintage cap

    As above, this is nowhere near a Second World War vintage piece - and probably not even military.
    If you can return it, and get your money back, do so.
