Original cap with original reapplied insignia IMO.

Indeed Lenny,


That is what it looked like when I sold it a several months ago (I gave it away for $300)


Same sewing on the eagle and it was not removed and resewn,but it appears the officers cockarde was unfolded and resewn in a diamond, and a Infantry soutache added (the 3 original attachment loops were also removed)


Sad,sad,sad!!



Here is the photo from the dealers website.

Very interesting how far some dealer's will go. Seems to be a handy dealer with needle and thread.


Thanks for your help guys ,much appreciated..Tony,Lenny & Glen.

Yes it is...And a cool $550 profit to boot, as it sold for $850.
