    Sterling cap wreaths?

    Got a pair of early '34-'35 peaked cap wreaths that not only have the silver wash, the weight and black tarnish make me think sterling. (the pins, too). Top quality.

    Tho there's no mm or silver mark, were these available to well-heeled servicemen - or generals - on 'special order'? Sort of like when i was in the air force and got chrome collar and cap insignia from the px to replace the dull pewter-looking stuff.

    These definitely aren't alloy (like the one i show for cpmparo.).



    Thanks.

    One of the 'silvers' is lighter than the other. Manufacturing variations i guess...
