Default Gordon Highlanders Victorian Badge?
Seem to be finding a lot of Highlander items these days.
Original?

There were "tons" of fake ones around in the 1970's, some with lugs and some with screw posts as per the one I've had since then.

Sadly not original, if you bought it as such, get a refund.
