Default Mystery headgear & question

Afternoon Guzzman
Total guess on the headgear picture - Boer War? The reason I offer this guess is based merely on a set of figures I once saw, mixed Naval ratings & RMA gun crew in the Boer War and one of the ratings had a hat like this.

Question - in your 2nd post, last picture (bottom right). Are you able to tell with naked eye or magnifying glass whether the collar badges end in a single leaf and therefore a point, or in 2 leafs?
