Hi, I have taken three photos on my camera phone, as I can't find my proper camera.. The colour of the Hat is a deep green, and inside shows signs of wear... Regards Jase

Without seeing any stamps its rather hard to say if it is an original one.
Dark-Green is always relativ... The first time I saw a "Fieldgrey" Tunic, I was disapointed because it was more green then Grey. Of caurse it alway depends on who was the manufacturer. Here is a Link to Wiki, it shows how feldgrau should look like.

Go to http://www.atthefront.com/ the the German Uniform page, and About German Uniforms link.

You will see many variations of Feld Grau.
