It is not died. WW2 manufacture. Came in a collection of some WW2 USMC patches from an estate sale that I purchased on ebay.

 

Thoughts?

If I had to guess it was probably a test patch. From what I understand they produced patches in odd colors like this sometimes to test the threads in the machines. Neat piece definitely has some age to it as well.

I would think test piece too. Has stains on it so I wonder if the marine found it in a box of patches from supply and kept it all these years.
