Original era manufacture. Nice quality Kepi with a tan silk lining. The colors are a peach or light orange top, with a carmine body. Directly embroidered on the front of the hat is a gold wire 5. Black, bound visor, with a thin gold brocade chinstrap. Gold wire decoration at the top of the hat for what I believe to be a 1st Lieutenant. Few small moth bites here and there, with some mothing on the bottom edge of the body. Sweatband shows several breaks in the leather but is still securely sewn to the body.
