The Berlin seller would suggest GdC, but it's not a sure thing.

I agree with Bob. The Berlin label makes me favor GdC. The colors for both regiments are identical - usually the only way to take an educated guess is by the maker/seller (if there is one) or an ID on the original owner. A lovely cap, either way. Both are plenty rare.
