Help to ID tunic please

A guess
Maybe Russian ?
What are the buttons ?
Does not look Imperial German
that I have seen

I agree with Steve, I'd guess Russian. I can see the buttons have a crest or something on them, can you post a close up? Also appears the cuffs are "Polish" cut similar to the Uhlan Regts.
 
I think this may be a Royal Bulgarian officers tunic, late 1800's or early 1900's. The Bulgarian uniforms used crowned rampant lion buttons, and the cut in this photo appears similar to what you have. As to rank, without the boards I don't think you can tell unless there is an owners label inside. The back of the buttons are from the Bruder Schneider, Wien (Vienna) It could be that the uniform was tailored in Vienna for this officer.



Anyway, that's my best guess...Hope this helps

Great photo
Thanks for posting .
The Czar of Bulgaria had a lot of uniforms
and he was loaded with medals .
He was the Chef of the Prussian Inf. Regt. 72
I think the uniform looks a lot like the one
in the posted photos .
