Based on the painting of the Battle of Calibío by José María Espinosa, the bearskin back would have a yellow grenade on the fabric. At this time the Cundinamarcan Army would have used the same ranks and badges as the spanish, Sergeants would also carry spontoons and red epaulletes and capitans would have only one strap and two button coloured epaulletes, also a lighter coat. Unlike the picture, Rankers would use sandals as they were cheaper and more comfortable than boots. The picture shows a spanish musket.

Based on the drawing of Y. Aliriventz, showing the infantry drummer for the Antioquia, Girardot, Rifles, and Alto Magdalena batallions, the coat is surely british. The cocade is strangely arrenged, and this uniform probably inspired the modern honour guard uniform.

Based on the 1813 reglament, which states: "The general uniform of the army will be blue coat and trousers, red cuffs and collar, one row of buttons on the center and red piping. golden metal and boots for line infantry" and the Illustrations by Y. Aliriventz that also show red epaulletes and a red stripe on the trousers. they also show a fatigue hat, having either red or white piping with a cocade.

Who were the purple jackets of 1941? Does it have anything to do with World War II?

This is a bracelet and a pin I found in my grandfather’s stuff, one says “ purple jackets 1941” and the other pen looks like a purple “jacket”

Greetings! The tunic looks like Royal Artillery, has RA buttons and a Master Gunner insignia. But I don't think the chevrons are placed correctly and cannot figure out the braid -- it's not on any example I can find. Can anyone help?

Im wondering if this uniform is legit and how much would it be worth if i were to sell it at second hand market

The parade uniform of the Polish Border Guard is very similar to that of the Land Forces. The main difference is a round peaked cap instead of the four-cornered one (rogatywka) and green piping on trousers and sleeves.
