Hello,
I post this side cap for a friend,
He has already my opinion ( a fake) but he want to be sure.
The insignias are 100% fake,
the material used for the red soutache is unusual
the lining is original, but unusual for 1940, I have to add this one
is normally used for mantel , sleeves part most of the time.
( the same material was often used to build repro M43 cap some years ago)
the grommets are unusual for this maker, too shiny.
the marking is well done but too thick for this period.
Please to confirm my thought about this one, a very well made fake IMO
But, of course, I can be wrong...
