Really nice Vichy pins and badges, but I can't help you. I think you posted in the right section. I'm sure a couple of guys here can help you.

Left badge is a repro from 1975 ( R. 75 ) , 5th foreign legion regiment in
Indochina during the Vichy period 40-45 .
Never seen the gold one ?
Some kind of patriotical badge as you can see many in various forms ...

hello john
i agree with nick the fooreign legion is a repro!
the gold round is a sympatisan(patriotic) badge you many form little , big, with a chain etc!
the badge with the AUGIS mark is a good piece= order of the FRANCIQUE GALLIQUE! an hight vichy order! (but in France the price is not very hight)
the badge with the hunting horn is french alpin hunting regiment , a good piece i think , but i cannot see the stamp?

HI Patrick,

Thank you for the information.

The hunting regiment piece has a maker mark in the shadow area, "A. AUGIS----N". It is hard to make out some of the letters.
