That is unless I’ve missed something that’s been discovered somewhere with these and the ‘right-angle’…

Alan, I'll dig my Coldstream Guards badges out. I have a smaller style cap star that I believe is Victorian, I have seen one attributed to a group of medals seen online. I have another that is like the one you show, and is lugged N/S.....
