Hi guys, can you help me determine the origin of this 1st Marine patch? I'm leaning towards Chinese made but the back almost reminds me of the Australian made examples.

 

Thanks in advance!

I ended up getting it, still leaning towards Chinese origin. Any ideas?

Chinese. Look at the red embroidery on the one and compare that to other known Chinese patches and the silk embroidery will match. Look at the actual silk thread. Chinese silk embroidery is different from the silk used in Japan/Korea/Vietnam.
