Can't judge the cap for sure, but at least its stated Stirndruckfrei on the sweat shield and actually has the stirndruckfrei feature...
(black material on inside), which is positive!

seems like original piece to me...but I m not an expert....try headgear forum

I'd wait for one of the experts like Stonemint.

Don't like how the lower piping appears to be uneven.

The lining is typical of Pekuro's civil caps, not military so I suspected a Franky and these stitches confirms my doubts. I would pass..

I can't see here but doesn't pekuro has the V stitching on black band stirnd system?

So , should I buy it or not ?
Many thanks

That's entirely up to you .....
These people cannot tell you what to do with your money
But if you read the posts you would have noticed that 3 of the members were not overly keen.
There's a clue there somewhere

i think ive seen it on ebay a month ago
my opinion is the same as back then
original visor, original lining, put on a fake wool cap
so originally was fake or repro cap, modified with restored real visor and lining to look like fully original

Personal opinion though
look at the damege on the wool, on the black wool and then on the inner part
for me do not match and i think they differ in age with like 60 70 years

Have patience & purchase one that is original. This ain't playin Vegas! Study more on images of original construction. There is not a lot to knowing acceptable manufacture technique. It's when people think "variant" or talk themselves into a bad buy then later, they learn the hows of the subject that sleepless times creep up on you. That whole thing is not fun. Shaming yourself for even considering a bad buy is constructive for best result orientated collecting. Look in the mirror n say " might as well drink Napoleon n hook up with a loosey goosey... same waste of $$$

While not an "expert" on these headgear, there is something not quite right about it and Urka may have a point here.
