KM Side cap with tradition badge

[paul w]

Hello guys, this is a recent aquisition from Thomas Huss.This is my first side cap of any sort and while I have compared it against similar ones on this and other forums and believe it looks ok I need some more experienced opinions.Now I know when you pick up these caps with tradition badges without provenence you pay your money and take your chances, however,perhaps I could have some opinions on the cap itself,the eagle and cockade, and finally, the edelweiss.The edelweiss is non magnetic and appears to be zinc with a small amount of 'zinc pest' on the ends of some of the petals.Many thanks for any help you can give,

Paul

All insigna are OK including the cap, but it seems like they were not together from the beginning ....
