Austria-Hungary, often referred to as the Austro-Hungarian Empire or the Dual Monarchy, was a constitutional monarchy and great power in Central Europe between 1867 and 1918. It was formed with the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867, and was dissolved following its defeat in the First World War. The k.u.k. stands for kaiserlich und königlich (imperial and royal) and was used in the Austro-Hungarian empire to refer to empire-wide state institutions.
This reproduction cap is made of museum quality materials and the workmanship is outstanding. A very high quality 1907 dated Cap with German Reich cockade and ribbon.
