Bloody hell, what's going on? first the grey nco visor with runes from ebay posted this week right out the blue followed by this one out the blue as well which on first impressions looks as right as rain and an erel to boot! I need to sit down for a minute!

Ok, so the skull is a Deschler and the eagle a Hicke, both genuine IMO but that's only half the story. You seem to have an authentic yellow piped erel ss visor cap with period repairs suggesting that it was combat worn and that is just blowing my mind at the moment!

Please take some decent photos done in the daylight with close up shots under the sweatband so we can determine if it's been messed with.
