This is a museum quality reproduction of the extremely rare 1880-81 Enlisted EGA in Sterling Silver. This EGA is shown in Jim Moran’s Book US Marine Uniforms 1912-1940 on page 154, Figure 38. This design shako hat with the proper wire in the back. Other versions are available. It is estimated that 1 in 50 EGAs from this period are of this design.
