Condition
Good with some minor points to note;
- one pinhead dark mark on the top of the crown
- a faint 5mm orange mark on the brim
- a single 3mm moth graze to the surface nap on the underside of the brim
- there is some light discolouration over the whole piece, as happens with the paler hats, but because it is even it isn't as noticeable
