Advice on black EM/NCO cap pics...

[Pascal Bernhard]

Hello Gentlemen,

I need really advice about the following pics...

Do you think the cap on this pics is a fake ?

If it is... think I need really a serious recycling !

But let's read our SS caps experts of the forum

thank you

Pascal.

PS.: But I'm ready to learn more !

would say, RZM tag is perhaps too "new" for this cap...

thoughts will be welcome !

Thanks a lot !

All is correct! Perfectly real!

Thanks Peter,

Same opinion, but on some other forum thoughts a more negativ...

But we are perhaps both wrong on this one... who knows...

I've seen this alot with HJ caps.. The label looks to new for the cap itselve but the sweatband never let any sweat throught and protects the label so it's true that these are in a better condition then the cap it selve problably.

To clarify, I'm NOT interested to buying this cap (think have enough at home )

I am only very surprised in connection with the negative reactions expressed about it on another forum…

Later will show you pics of the whole cap... And dealers name if he is not allready known...

And I don't have any "stock options" of this company, it's only to clarify my personal knowledge.

I just took a closer look at the RZM tag. There is a problem. I see now why the other forum had an issue.
The tag is a replacement IMO. sorry for any confusion.

RZM tag

So it doesn't get lost in last post, after a closer look, the tag looks like a replacement. It does have an important issue. Sorry for the confusion.

Was my first impression too... perhaps replaced, but tag seems original (I'm not 100% sure)

tha insignia seems also replaced, too early for such a cap, but we know it, could be possible... If they are real, I'm not an expert in early TK and M27/29 eagles...

White piping a little bit "fuzzy", but have it also on my original unissued CW twins...

[derek]

The cap is a fake with incorrect RZM stamp and tag.

The tag is not real IMO. insignia is not appropriate for the cap for sure. The outside shape of the cap is very odd as well.

Cap

This is the last time I will try to evaluate a cap using my iPhone. The closer I look at the inside and outside the worse things get. I agree with Derek. The whole hat definitely has issues.....

[Pascal Bernhard]

Think will definitively stop collecting SS items...
it's better for my futur money account...


Indeed a odd shape...

the side lining, oilcloth top lining is really well made, oilcloth top with it's SS runes and vert-de-gris surrounded "do it" well...

Do you think this cap was artificially used ?
