A very well preserved Heer Artillery officers visor cap, constructed of smooth field grey wool. The crown of the cap is fully lined with a band of red piping, with two additional bands of identical piping located at the top and bottom of the cap band, itself constructed of dark green wool. Pinned into the peak of the cap is a silvered zink Wehrmacht eagle clutching a wreathed mobile swastika, measuring 65 mm (w) x 25 mm
