Who can tell me what this is.
It is a uniform with a navy like look. It has double breasted buttons with 3 lions on it. has red piping on the cuffs and collar. See pictures although they are not of very great quality. ser-g |

Re: Black uniform with red piping
i did find the buttons to look like english ones indeed.
the seller tels me he bought the uniform a few years ago in Tallin, Estonia. who knows his story is true. the shoulder boards are soviet looking atleast. its weird there is no collar insignia. i asked for pictures of labels and marks. maybe if i get them that shine's a brighter light on this one.:idea i'm very interested because i poses a cap that has red piping and black top. i guess that could go with this uniform. who can put a light on it.

Re: Black uniform with red piping
The "three lion" insignia is the Republic of Estonia state seal.
