Hey Guys, I'm not into headgear at all but would really appreciate a little advice on this NCO visor. Is this ok with the panzer skull on it. Any other red flags?
Thanks

From what I can see, the cap itself appears to be a fine enlisted visor with cavalry/reconnaisance waffenfarbe(piping) As far as the skull, it appears to be a panzer collar tab skull. Worn by regimental staff 1,2,4,5&11 squadrons of 5th Cav Reg. according to Brian Davis's book pg 88. Cool hat. Big Grin

Looks like there are more holes below the eagle where it probably once sat. A lot of collectors add the skull post war to make it look cool/add value.
