Default !st KDG,!st Royal Dragoons,3rd DG

opinions on these 3 badges please,
!st Kings Dragoon Guards
!st Royal Dragoons
3rd Dragoon Guards

I have looked at Forum threads and the British Cavalry badges photos and am probably more confused than before...if that is possible-it's the reason a badge is good or not that helps with my [and many others ]learning curve!

Unfortunately as mentioned, they are all bad. The obverse of all of them is not what is expected, and the sliders are typical of repros. The KDG should be with slider, not lugs.
