Raider Patch

Hello,

 

Looking for some guidance and opinions on these patches.  The 2 on the left came from one collection and the 2 on the right were from a recent acquisition.   I'm wanting to keep a set but noticed the star on the left is not quite positioned correctly and the new set is somewhat wider.  Maybe they are not worth keeping or maybe they are post WW2.  All opinions are welcome.

Thanks.

IMO all are originals but if I had to pick a set I would definitely keep the set on the left.

I generally agree with Eric, as the “snowy” backs tend to be more desirable to collectors.

 

That said, I like the skull on the one on the right better, which I think collectors refer to as the “Casper” version.

I too agree with the previous posts that all 4 of your patches are WW II vintage-perhaps just manufacturer variations. For reference, here are three other pairs with similar differences between fat and thin fat detail/diamond border/stars
