It appears to have a slider identical to the one attached; crimped to fit the lightning bolt. That is a good sign.

The crown on the eagle's head was ditched shortly after the war so it is likely of wartime British manufacture.
It is a nice variation, most were embroidered on felt.

That one is no good I'm afraid, horizontal stitching is rarely found on original shoulder titles. I think you will find the white backing material is flammable synthetic material.

New fake AAC cap badge
Here's an AAC cap badge that I picked up recently, it was cheap and ssold as a fake.
It is the best copy I have seen so far, the lugs are not like original ones but that's the only big flaw.

I would agree, in my experience a veteran wears his original cap or at least something identical.
This cap would be more appropriate for people like Angus Young.
