Tropical set? Value?

[hdmarley]

Hello, I picked these up on a recent trade and have any idea as to what they are or what they may go on?? Do they belong together? I assume tropical eagle but have read about feather count just wanted some opinions! Thank you in advance for any help provided.

Best Regards,

Hello,

Please see this thread about that eagle BEFORE buying.

hdmarley, what you have is a tropical cap eagle and a cap roundel. Both appear to be originals and do belong together. No idea about the price though.

WOW sounds like some headstrongs going at it!! So i guess it is repro??

Why you think your eagle is a repro?

I guess all that hair pulling in that posted thread confused me 4 feathers and 5 feathers. WTF. Many thanks for your help TONY!!

[TONY Q.W.]

ohh I see, here it goes:

cap eagle----> 4 feathers
breast eagle--> 5 feathers.

Your eagle is a cap one, thus 4 feathers so an original one

Tony is quite correct - you have a set for the tropical cap - not tunic. (The repro eagle on the other thread was copied from a cap eagle, which is an easy method for beginners to spot.) The rondel you have is actually harder to find than the eagle. Price? Take a look at some of the dealer threads and remove at least a third of their price.
Good set to have

Hello,

I read your post # 4 and thought it was a breast eagle.

That is for a cap, note the size in comparison to the cockade in the first post. These both appear original to me.
