This is a patch (as seen on eBay) for the first Firefly Aerospace Alpha test launch scheduled for later this month. It looks like it was produced by the 30th Space Wing at Vandenberg Air Force Base.

Firefly Aerospace's first Alpha rocket is set to launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.

Flight 001 is carrying DREAM (Dedicated Research and Education Accelerator Mission), a payload comprised of dozens of non-technical items (memorabilia), as well as 11 technical payloads representing four different nations, honoring Firefly's motto of "Making Space For Everyone."

A patch designed for a "memorabilia" sub-payload riding in the DREAM package.

Flight 007: Stairway to Seven
Firefly's official Alpha Flight 7 mission patch commemorates Alpha's return to flight. This mission, called Stairway to Seven, will test and validate key systems ahead of Firefly’s Block II configuration upgrade on Flight 8 that’s designed to enhance reliability and manufacturability across the vehicle.
This patch and others are available from Firefly's online shop.
