https://lastchance.cc/only-one-man-in-the-world-owns-tf2s-top-notch-hat-5862807/%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E

It shouldn’t be hard to guess who it is, either. Minecraft creator Markus “Notch” Persson was invited to play in Team Fortress 2‘s third Mixup event. Playing on RED, he was teamed with Valve’s Jon Lippincott and Cobalt’s Daniel Brynolf (against a BLU comprising filmmaker Freddy Wong, Valve’s Robin Walker, and others). After Notch collected the “Primeval Warrior” medal in a later game, Walker also presented him with the “Top Notch” hat. More »

It was, as that image above suggests, a straight copy of the duds King Juan Carlos wears as World’s Most Interesting Man Captain General of the Armies.
