Another, a Turkish made badge? Comments and opinions welcomed:

garfield3, The first one looks like a nice badge, similar to the one from Carsten Baldes book 'Aircrew Badges and Honor Prizes of the Flying Troops from 1913 to 1920'. A type 2 on page 476. The second one I am unsure, it does not have the upper loop on the reverse of the crown.
