Quite right, the officers busby badge is a completely differant badge to the badge shown in the original post on here, differant in every way, I've even had an example that had the silvered eagle mounted on a ususally fine, almost murcurial, fire gilt circlet, they are both distinctive and really beautiful.
I am a little surprised that anyone could confuse them with the badge shown in the original post.

Harry, that's a most interesting reference to it being worn by Indian servants, quite fascinating.
