Marv,
If genuine, that is a model from the 1920's.

Heavily abused. The visor looks like one from 60's, just made totally flat (to mimic spade-shaped one?). Differs from officer field caps from the 60's, but could be OK. The stamps look weird. Maybe a film prop?

If, as Marc suggests, it is indeed a cap from the 1920's, it would appear to be festooned with a cap star from the 1950's. . .

Guys,
How often have you seen vents on the side of 1960's caps? That feature was abandonned before the war!

That's why a film prop was my suggestion. Because apart from that, the cap has the elements typical rather for later caps.

So you think it's a 50s or 60s cap converted into a 20s cap to use it as a film prop?

Well, whatever it is, there remain too many doubts to my way of thinking.

Hi
the ventilation grommets appear on caps models 1928 .
No external wear , very worn interior , star postwar , plastic strap similar to officers caps Mod 58 .
I would like to to see the construction underneath the headband inside because for the moment it is totally incoherent for me ?

Hello,
The cap is original.
Star has simply changed.
