They all look ok to me with the exception of the Gaunt marked badge, which is a 70s era restrike.

So may be the wide tapered one next to it I am afraid. The slider is distinctive.

The 2 Cornwalls and the Somerset look ok and as said the others not unfortunately, the slider that Alan mentions is regarded as one on fake badges as far as I can remember, it had a distinctive name but for the life of me I can’t remember it and can’t find it on the forum but there are threads on it , others will know I’m sure.
