Austria-Hungary Austrian uniform

[Stefan]

Hello,

I'm helping a retired Swedish colonel with his militaria collection and this Austrian uniform coat was in it.

He says that it might be a general staff's uniform but is not sure. Anyone here that knows the model and how to read the rank from it?

It's missing the inner side and it looks it's half finnished. But the outside is very nice.

Regards,

Stefan

only one shoulder strap

buttons are massive brass and marked with "Wien" and maker (can't remember the name)

[Elmar Lang]

It is the overcoat to a Uhlan staff officer's uniform (see the gilt border to the cuffs).

Best wishes,

Hello again,

I've put it out for sale now and I would like to know if you knew the period it might have been used?

Cheers,
