Is insignia from the USS Grouper exceptionally rare or something as I thought $380.00 was kind of high for this patch. I could be wrong but this looks like a post war patch.

I don't know how many bidders made it to the end but my guess is that it was a Grouper vet who wanted a remembrance. That seems rather steep for a collector.
