Mongolian Armed Forces Officer Leather Greatcoat – Genuine Goatskin, Sheepskin Collar & Quilted Liner, Size Medium EU-48, Unworn Original Issue

Description

Original Item – Only One Available. A commanding piece in every sense, this is a genuine Mongolian Armed Forces officer leather greatcoat in unworn, original-issue condition, made from fine dark brown goatskin leather of a quality that immediately sets it apart from the mass-produced surplus that floods most militaria markets. Cut in the classic full-length officer greatcoat tradition inherited from Soviet military tailoring, the coat features a broad sheepskin collar in deep navy that folds up fully against the neck, a belted waist with buckle hardware, button-front closure, and adjustable cuff tabs. The shoulder boards carry three gold embroidered stars, denoting the rank of Colonel, and are sewn to integrated leather epaulette loops. The interior is lined with a removable diamond-quilted thermal liner in warm tan, providing genuine cold-weather insulation, with the size marked clearly as 48.

The leather itself deserves particular mention. Mongolian goatskin has a character entirely its own, supple yet dense, with a natural grain that holds its structure exceptionally well in extreme cold, a practical requirement in a country where winter temperatures routinely punish lesser materials. Genuine Mongolian military greatcoats almost never surface on the international market in any condition, and an unworn example with rank insignia intact, original liner, and maker's label present is genuinely exceptional. This is the sort of piece a collector acquires once and does not part with lightly, a visually striking, historically grounded, and superbly constructed officer garment from one of the world's most overlooked military uniform traditions.
