Visor cap eagle

[Mark Stevens]

There is another cap eagle posted today that got a thumbs up. Mine looks almost identical, so I am hoping it is also authentic.

It is marked 155/42.

155/42 is an Assmann mark and you have a 3 pin Assmann eagle in zinc ... perhaps the predecessor of the later unmarked types ?

Thanks, Ian. I bought this eagle from a local antique dealer and took a chance on buying it because the patina looked authentic.

It is authentic!
