Soviet Soviet Sailors cap

[muckaroon1960]

Bought this Soviet Naval cap or should that be hat from a recent militaria show. Not a great fan of modern militaria but thought this looked great and displays really well.

I have been told this is from Black Sea Navy but I cannot confirm?

If you are original militaria fan I'll disappoint you - the only original part of this item is it's cocarde.

Thanks for that information but please explain your above comment?

Both tally and cap are handmade "dembel" items.

You can see a period original cap and tallies here

I've never seen such inside order on soviet factory made caps.

I think it's purchased item.
