I found this badge at www.nomanslandmilitaria.com (#914)
Here's the description:
Item # 914 Early aluminum Army Paratrooper badge; A very rare example of the pre-war aluminum jump qualification badge for soldiers of the single Army paratrooper regiment that existed before it's amalgamation with the Luftwaffe forces. This extremely rare badge is a textbook example being cast in aluminum with fine detail and gilded wreath/eagle/swastika. The correct domed rivets are evidenced in the photos. Overall condition is very good with only very minor oxidation. A rare chance to acquire an authentic example of this badge. There are no known copies of this badge that are liable to fool collectors due to the process of casting aluminum being very difficult to copy. 100% guaranteed as far as authenticity. Price $900.00
Well, we can all breath easier knowing "There are no known copies of this badge that are liable to fool collectors"
