WW2 USMC 1st Marine Amphibious Corps Parachute Battalion (Paramarines) Patch

[71Mach]

Picked this patch up with a few other Airborne patches at a local sale. Just trying to verify it’s a WW2 era patch and possible value. Any comments or opinions would be appreciated. Thanks

Looks like a good one to me.  Does it have a "silky" feel to the front?  The ones that I have are very distinctive in their feel and almost a floppy, silky feel to them.  Based on the pictures, I would say you have a good one here.

It is an original wartime patch.  Value, if you look what they have sold for lately on eBay, they have ranged between 30-85.  Semper Fi - Jeff
