They all look OK to my eyes, except the Queen's Own Hussars with that wonky head. The two 3H appear identical from the same die.

Both 3rd KOH are repros with the overlaid scrolls. The 8H looks OK, it should have a braze hole behind the crown.

The Queen’s Own Hussars badge is outside my collecting timeframe so I will leave that to others to comment, but from what I can see I would not buy it.

From the photographs, I would agree that the 8th Hussars stands a chance, but, you will certainly be able to get better.

I think they are all for the rejects box, didn’t like the look of them, but wanted to check first. Thanks all
