Are these Collar EGA Reproductions?

I'm thinking about buying a 1920-30 USMC jacket it has these EGAs on collar I do not remember ever seeing any like these. The lack of quality is so bad I do not like them.  At first I thought they were the lead ones but they do not match any I have.  But as many of you know I only know enough to mess up.  I appreciate any help.  Thanks in advance.  Richard

These are legitimate WWII emblems made of lead or pot metal in order to save the bronze they were normally made of.  I'm not sure if these were issued or private purchase, but they are not uncommon.  I've seen several variations of these kind of emblems.

Thanks for the info  If I buy the jacket I'll post some EGAs I have for your suggestion must likely to have been on jacket in time of use.  Richard
