Hi Mark,
Not really my field but I don't notice anything unremarkable about this modern looking beret. I may be wrong!
I was talking to a guy yesterday that was sold a beret that was bought at my local car boot sale last Sunday for £4. It was a wartime dated Para beret and I believe that it changed hands yesterday for 45 times that amount and is still sought after by a collector willing to pay more.
I really wish that I hadn't had that lay in last weekend
