Default Highland and Lowland Regiments

Could anyone comment about these. I'm not sure that they're right.

As a rule the genuine Lowland badges had 4 lugs and the Highland lugs were placed centrally. Yours are slightly above centre which is seen on some, but not all, fakes.

There are other tell-tales as well.
