Sand cast?

 

The Vietnamese did a lot of sand cast insignias

How would you tell? The back looks more like paint brush bristle marks over stippling I’d guess you would get from sand casting.

 

Casting of some sort is how I think they were made.

Doyler is right in that they are South Vietnamese made copies of US paratrooper wings using their crude sand casting method of manufacturing. Usually they use a US made example as a template but this is a variant of their own. Nice find.
