Certainly an oddity. My feelings are it’s likely an early badge of similar ilk to the pre-WW1 GM Fife and Forfar badges which are often erroneously described as 14th Black Watch.

I’ve emailed a friend far more knowledgeable than me in these matters, I’m certain he’ll know.

Also dropped you a PM Steve.
