The large one is for the parade visor cap and the small one is for service cap. You may notice that the cap itself is basically the same, the difference is the cockade.
As a personal comment - the astrakhan wool is quite expensive, as mentioned earlier. It wouldn't be that unrealistic to think a such nice cap would have been used for the same purposes as the visor-fitted astrakhan cap (or as some parade-walkout wear) and thus being fitted with the larger cockade. Just me thinking.
