Default Royal Irish Fusiliers Glengarry badge.

Among today's finds was this Glengarry badge to the Royal Irish Fusiliers.
Any thoughts/comments to its originality are welcome.
Thanks Tony.

Thanks Mercian, yes the lugs are brass, I was a bit concerned by the ' woman scrubbing the step' eagle's breast , but it matches the example in K+K.
Cheers Tony.
