Handsome!
I think all the badges are 4 pin. Unless you get them used, in which case they are often 3, 2, 1, or 0 pin

Re: Bundeswher Para Beret
What I would like is an early para cap badge without the national colours at the bottom

Aha,than my Green "french" beret, is most likely German, as it has 4 distinct holes where a badge would have been fixed!!

The four holes are a dead give away that a BW looking beret is BW
The flagless FJ beret badges are pretty rare. You can get the other two (Panzer and Jäger) pretty easily.

I have seen a couple of flagless FJ capbadges on ebay but I forgot to bid on them for one reason or another
