Found these at my friend's place, any thoughts or information on originality and age would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Top three good genuine items.
No.9 Possibly good - reverse looks a bit bright but may be the light - a similar variant was made
No.10 - personally, not for me on first glance ...
All would pertain to WW2 if correct

N°10 COMMANDO is a reproduction. Others are WW2 originals.

2 Medical Commando looks good with the leaning "O" - a good sign. Would like seeing a closer look at the back however just to be sure.

Yep, 2 Medical Commando looks good from the front and the back. A very nice one to have too!

Now to find... well, and afford a 1 Medical Commando!
