I do not collect a lot of German WWI items because I’m afraid of getting ripped off. But I have a large US WWI collection and I would like to have some German items. I found this Kriegsmarine hat for sale. To me it looks to good to be true. The condition is excellent for something that is supposed to be almost 100 years old. However, I have an US Indian Service tunic that is in excellent condition because it was unissued so I don’t want to pass on this hat if it is authentic.
Thanks in advance for your opinions!
