It appears that NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama produced a patch for team members who worked on the Space Launch System (SLS) Green Run series of core stage tests. The patch is accompanied by a card from center director Jody Singer that reads in part:
As a member of the team designing, building, testing and soon flying America's next deep space human rated heavy launch vehicle — the Space Launch System — I wanted to congratulate you on your accomplishments by sharing with you this commemorative Green Run mission patch.

One of these SLS Green Run patches attached to the information card, just sold on eBay for $95 plus shipping.

It is nice to have this provenance to go with my patch. I feel lucky to have collected one back in October.
