Default pegasus revisited

I know that the Pegasus patch is one of the most copied patches and some of the fakes are so obvious that even the most over - excited novice is unlikely to be taken in. However , over the years the fakers have honed their offerings. They probably look at the forums and are told where the problems are with their work and probably resolve to do better next time.
Given the problems with airborne and special forces insignia, I have tried to be very careful, but there are times when it is quite difficult to pick a good one. I have had this facing pair lying around for about 20 years. I'm not entirely sure where it came from.
Can anyone tell me if the pair are original and, if not, what should one look out for ?
Thanks
Mike
