Original cap. It looks as if there may have been a regimental badge under the eagle at some point, hence the higher than usual placement.

The Braunschweig distributor would also support this theory ! Beautiful visor ... Kurt

I'm with Basel, there was maby an "Braunschweiger totenkopf" from a Inafnterie Regiment 13, or a " Schwedter Adler".

However a very nice cap!

I agree with everyone else, but nice double Erel as well. Matt

What cracks me up is that there are so many hats with Braunschweig TK's stuck on on them postwar, but this one is a real one missing it's TK.

Yes, it is a genuine, no questions asked IR 17 Erel.

PS--get a skull with a septum, and try to get a finish matching the wreath and cockade.
