            That looks very much to me like a set of molds for making/faking your own medals. They would be pressed into/between clay, removed, then molten metal poured in to make a replica/fake badge.
            Interesting and scary too!

                Hello,

                To me, it looks more like resin castings that were made from a rubber/latex mold. These pieces are not, IMO, a set of molds but rather the actual cast pieces made from a mold.

                Best regards,
                Tom

                  Note the rubber/latex residue from the mold:

                    tyanacek is correct as I have seen this done (last week) with a unit crest in the model shop on the base where I work.They used the original piece made a rubber mold & cast the insignia in resin.It worked very well with the resin.

                      100%! Very easy to do TBH, especially with lead!
