Samland,
I'm not 100% sure about these.. I would expect to see a mirror image (reversed) on the back side..
But I am sure there were variations..
Here is an example that I have in my collection..
Best regards, stay safe

Here is a fake type (I think it is a fake type)
Although Blacklighting is not a proof positive way to determine authenticity, it may be useful to see if the fabric glows..
I have not seen the type of zigzag cut before but again there would have been I assume many different methods of mass printing these..

zigzag is a fake !
But I need oppinions about first two patches
The zig zag cut out one shown is the most prevalent of the fakes of the Ost patch its almost made on a soft cotton. See them at the SOS every year as "variants". In terms of the first one posted I have actually never seen a subdued colour patch. The blue one that Smithy posted is the original standard one that is always seen.
