The original slouch hat badges were also actually manufactured in gm.

Could this be a possible copy/repro produced from an original die? There were a number of SA badges reproduced in the 1970's

If original, it could be one of those WWII bronzed badges that has had a real good cleaning to remove the bronze and exposing the brass.
