Mine I would suggest have no age at all. I automatically assumed they were a tartan badge backing, however it does seem to be like those being offered as copies of wartime battledress badges.
Learning has taken place - unless we think that they may well be a later backing for Cameronians.
Many thanks chaps.

This is the problem with these. While it is most likely they are post war, they are not really copies in a sense. It usually impossible to determine when they were made and they could well be from an old bit of tartan.
Any old bits and pieces of tartan were utilized to make these in ww2 and after. There were no issues of specifically made tartan patches for this purpose until more recent times, as for TOS backings etc.
