            IV A.K. is 4. Armee Korps. General Command of the IV Army Corps in Magdeburg. Corps Area: Province Saxony and Duchy of Anhalt.

            It's hard to make out exact colour of the cockade. Is it black and white? or black and yellow?

            I think this is quite early 1919, certainly before September 1919 when the oak-leaf wreath was added to the bottom cockade.

              Its an early issue cap with war era Prussian cockade... you'll need to do some homework but I do not think these were issued with this type of cockade, its likely an add on. Its typically the embroidered version.

              This link, post #9 shows a model 1919 universal cap missing its visor, but it has identical stamps.

              The small, smeared stamp on yours appears to be "JR17" ...Infantry Regt. 17

              I like it.

                First,thanks a lot for those precious infos and link to War relic,was very interresting thread about Reichswehr caps.

                About the cockade i think it is black and white,but the white turned a little bit yellow.
