Default 11th Hussars side cap and badge

Gentlemen,

I'm interested in your opinions regarding this side cap and badge: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Field-Cap...-127635-2958-0


I believe they are both modern copies and not the ones made in 1940-60s.

Regards,
Michael

I wouldnt say they were copies but the 11th and 14th/20th caps he has up for sale are way too expensive . You can find examples that are 1/3 of the price beginning asked.

Thank you Mike! So far I could not find the cap of the Cherrypickers. I wonder where I could find one for sale?

The 11H is likely of WW2 or shortly thereafter, but the 14/20 is later, just how much later impossible to say. They are genuine, but too expensive as mentioned.
