I have a small collection of badges for belt plates here:

Although there are some sealed patterns from 1967 - 1968 most are brass and not chrome plated:

I believe that many are PRI items and not (generally) issued so without NSNs and Pattern Numbers. This would account for the variations found in both badges and plates even from the same Regiment or Corps. Some use the same belt plate and badge on stable belts and on parade white and green courlene belts.
