Admiral and officer caps
#1
Hello

I think I have bad luck with my admiral ushanka so I started a new thread with new caps and I hope some you can help me check this two caps. Do you think there is any problem with them?

A senior officer cap (size 56 and a label with a uncleare circle with a triangle inside) and a admiral winter parade cap (no marking inside, blue band/ribbon).

Thanks.

Best regards from J

I see no problems with these caps, the left one is for senior officer (could be 1960s-1970s since the top is not huge) with an embroidered cap badge and the right one is an 1970s-1980s winter parade cap for admiral.

Hello Jupan,

Welcome to the Forum, hope it is a help!

I agree with Tretov, both black caps look OK to me and are nice Soviet naval headgear.

Jupan,

I agree on the fact that these 2 caps are original, but I beg to differ as to datation of the first one. IMHO, this is clearly a post-1970 cap.

I think both caps are probably circa 1980, but I see nothing wrong with either of them, including the cap badges.

hello, this is an enameled 1960' cocarde in my opinion... on the others photos, these appear to be correct 1980ies...

Cap badges are collected fakes.

The admiral cap badge with alluminium cocarde wasn't existed in Soviet Navy at all.
The embroided Navy officer's cap badge also should have complicated brass cocarde.
If you have embroided cap badge (doesn't metter admiral or officer) with alluminium cocarde - you have a fake.
