WWI Named Imperial German Kriegsmarine NCO Dress Tunic

The uniform jacket is constructed of a high quality dark blue wool with the naval rate insignia of a non commissioned officer Boatswain in gilt metal on the left sleeve held in place with oval metal backing.  The jacket has two rows of Imperial Kriegsmarine buttons, with the jacket closed by two such buttons on a short chain. All of the Kriegsmarine cuff buttons are in place, and the owner’s cloth neck tag remains intact in the collar. The jacket is a bit dusty from storage, and the gold cuff braid has toned with age, but the jacket is largely free of any stains or holes and makes an excellent appearance.
