I kinda like it but I ll defer to the more knowledgable...Billbert

the only thing that junped out at me was the chinstrap looked a little different..but that might just be the fotos...

IMO chinstrap is for sure a copy

Agree with you I don't like the cap too much and the chinstrap is for sure not good.

IMHO, every real coastal artillery visor I have seen does not have the piping at the bottom. Also the color seems a bit off (to dark of a green for KA), also the sweatband is concerning. My assessment is reworked post war cap.
Here is a link to a thread with several originals;
