This is just part of a Machine Gunners sleeve patch. It is missing all the backing cloth and steel plate.
Here is mine for comparison.

Yours is of a different manufacturer than my example. While I'm cautiously optimistic the remnants of yours might be original, these are a minefield and I would need to do a bit of research to confirm if yours is original. But you could do similar by searching the forum for similar examples to compare to.

big thanks on this all help will be taken in
had a look round like you say mine field ?? not much to go on all look the same .
the thing is that the prongs are different on this , but on all the other seam to be pins , so if they was to copy them they would make them the same ?? and this as age to it that would add to it as a original ???
This is probably the best thread out there. It is 63 pages long. I thought I saw prongs like the one on yours before but could be mistaken as I don't actively study these. Maybe you can find a match.

I reviewed all 32 pages of this thread and found no original examples with this type of fasteners.by MAP

There you go! Think that solves it. I could have sworn though I read an article or thread somewhere years ago that showed prongs like this. Guess it's the old memory going for me. LoL

The fakes outnumber originals by a long shot. I have never seen one in
person that I had enough confidence in to buy.

Looks to be a good Falkenburg Richter badge perhaps simplified for manufacturing by incorporating the pins into the overall design.
