Hello,
I've just picked this up with a group of British items,please could someone tell me what it is and if it's genuine?

I know nothing about German cloth badges!

Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Andy

Andy,

Your patch is a Werkschutz, factory protection officers sleeve shield.
I cant' say if it's original or not, the detail is a bit crude though.

Thanks Keith,one good sign is that it doesn't fluoresce under ultra violet light.

Maybe the machinist was having a bad day!

Kind regards,
Andy

Any more opinions on originality please?

Cheers,
