Hello, I have the following RHA Cyphers (attached pics)

1: WM
2: silver/or brushed silver plate

3: Gilt
4: GM
5: Gold A/A

6: Airbourne maroon with red in the middle

Can someone please tell me if the badges 1 to 5 were:

A; issued
B; A PRI bought badge
C; Fakes
D; Or any other info on them

The Maroon officers beret cypher, I have two without red in the middle, why does this one have red, I thought the red was for 3 RHA as I have blue beret cyphers without red and a 3 RHA with?

As it's 7 Parachute RHA then the badge should be for 7 RHA?
