Billy,
The RA Territorials OSD cap badge is in my opinion a poor fake. The badge is from a very worn die, the laurel spray almost disappearing its that worn. Bearing in mind all these TF badges were made over a hundred years ago they were of very good quality and as you suspect 99% solid backed. The rear of the other looks chemically aged also. regards

Yes thats OK, probably a bronze painted version rather than solid bronze, but original for sure.
regards
