    Agree Chris, more than likely

    Here another General Tropical cap that was discussed back in 2011

      Nicely made with lots of attention to detail, as one would expect. But true General's caps are immediate one-lookers IMO. If not, it's best to walk away.
      I know that's easier said than done when that wad of cash is burning a hole in your pocket . . .

        Hi John,

        Thanks for sharing this. This particular photo is small and low resolution. Are larger, crisper photos posted anywhere?

        It's not often that most collectors get an opportunity to see a legitimate general's cap like this.

        Best regards,

        Jason

          Always enjoy seeing this one John! I approach any M43 General's cap with skepticism, since originals are few and far between, tropical General's practically are non-existent, aside from a few, the one shown by you being one of them.

            Thanks gentlemen,

            Jason, I do not have a better photo, but here is an old thread about the cap and tunic which is interesting.
