NSKK Overseas Cap

[stonemint]

Gents--as most of you know, I specialize in visors (semi-soft headgear), not soft headgear such as M-43s and o/seas caps. This hat sort of fell into my lap, and it looks good to me. However, for some reason, the 2 front buttons are missing--are they hard to find?
The cap is minty, evidencing very little wear and no mothing. I assume these things are common, much more so than the Kepis:

Am I correct in assuming this is for Schlesian?:

I thought the hook attachment (instead of press studs) was neat--is this also common to these hats?:

Is this pip actually for a rank?:

The thing opens completely--I assume all these caps have this trait?

I would presume an RZM tag should be in here--I really don't see any evidence of one, other than 2 loose threads:

Sonemint-
The Cap Can Be Either For Motorgruppe Schlessien Or Franken. The Front Buttons Are Not An Easy Find. Your Cap Is He First Model Schiffen With The Pulldown Ear Flaps. Nice Piece.

Thanks, Bob--I just cannot figure out why the buttons and RZM tag are missing, but the Gruppe triangle was left intact....
