Default Green Howards FS side cap: fake or copy?

Hello everybody! I have recently purchased a Coloured FS side cap badged to the Alexandra, Princess of Wales's Own Yorkshire Regiment, AKA Green Howards. On receiving it I have started to nurture some doubts about genuinity of the item. Plastic buttons imitating anodized metal with a KC, cloth label and size paper tag in centimeters are scarcely compatible with a production in the 1940s, therefore a very well made copy? A stage prop? Whats your opinion, gents?
