                  Fake as well--entire cap.
                  Are all of these from the same source?
                  Is this a dealer, or an individual?

                    My first thought as well. Looks like they come from the same hand. J

                      Hello, from pictures cap, visor and lining, look ok for me ... sweatband no ... why are you so sure that is the same fake than the other?

                      These high wreaths are all very similar and don't look ok ...

                        KA caps in general are very tough to legitimize IMO. Many times guys take Imperial caps and convert them into KA caps quite successfully, but of course this could be said as well about regular Kriegsmarine visors being converted from pre war Reichsmarine visors, which is why you'll never see a Reichsmarine visor on the market. Unlike KM caps, I've only owed 2 genuine Coastal Artillery caps and these 4 caps in question would need a thorough hands on inspection before given the green light IMO. With that being said, if anyone ever comes across an unscrewed with Reichsmarine visor, JUMP on it! Because chances are you'll never see another.

                            Hi.

                            The 5 KA visors are not from the same hand.

                            Could anyone please explain to me what's wrong with the insignia as my expretise when it comes to visors and visor insignia is very slim.

                            Thanks.

                            Regards,
                            André

                              IMO a good KA OFF cap .
                              No problem with this low form typical cap with 2 pipings .
                              The leather band is may be restored , but when ?
                              Eagle is a war time low quality one .
                              Wreath are ok for me ,with typical war made cockade .
