Opinions on originality please. Any info appreciated, i dont usually collect this type of thing. Is it actually Prussian? and is it definitely Great War?
Thanks in advance.

Any opinions on what a cap like this might go for?

Cockades are for enlisted ranks, not an officer. Likely an nco's cap.The white portion of the cockades appear to be yellowed with age; I assume one is black & white and the other black white red?
The cap appears to be in good shape, and field grey caps seem to command a premium over dress caps, so I would say $200-250 for this one, as it is the most common arm of service, infantry. Nice cap.
