To be quite honest I do think that anyone who actually collects badges would be of the opinion that the way a particular badge is made and the materials used, is in fact, of very great significance, in particular, when avoiding spurious examples.
I would say, based solely upon the photographs you show in post nine, that the bullion embroidered badges are all of pre 1939 manufacture and that there is very little in the way of variation with regards to both the method and the materials used.
