WW2 Royal Navy Chief Petty Officer's Cap

A recent house clearance find and left as found, in untouched ''fresh to the market'' condition, this wonderful ''been there'' looking peaked cap was discovered along with another peaked cap that belonged to the same officer, also discovered were some combined operations items so 100% WW2 and not WW1/post-war.
The small size cap's deep navy blue wool crown is in excellent condition and free from any moth damage, the undisturbed bullion badge is in good order, upon close inspection there's a pin down the back of the badge to keep it in position on the band (same on both caps), the liner is the early quilted type with a name tag attached, this is now grubby from service use so the officer's name is long gone, the leather sweatband needs re-tacking/stitching to the rear & sides but this could easily be done.
Great looking cap, wish we knew the officer's name.
Size approx. 6 3/4
The cap seen in the images is the one currently for sale.
