Is the engineer zhupan original, if yes can you please post both patches on the arm, thanks in advance.

George, these are parade kivers used by Guard regiments, this particular one having silver "galun", blue band and yellow piping belonged to Guard Keksholmsky regiment, the only thing is the cocade is restored and the scroll is incorrect for that regiment

Chip could you please post the back of the board and the closeup of both stars, also if I remember correctly the cannons should have been embroidered not metal

That's probably obvious by know since noone responded, but the plum is not Imperial Russian.

Chip, I don't think your "General, 40.Artillery Brigade" board is original, the other two boards look fine, but with this one digit "4" is very strange and the top two corners are not very straight, just does not look Imperial quality, certainly Greg can attest to that, hopefully I'm wrong.
