The RSF, Lowland Regiment and Lovat Scouts are fine.

That type of Cameronians has been restruck. I believe yours to be a restrike.

The early Cameron is a fake.

The Black Watch appears to have been fiddled with. The center looks to have some sort of gold wash applied to imitate an officer badge, and it has been plated, as can be seen by the lugs.

Thanks for your input !
The Black Watch is partly gold washed and could have been chromed plated before...
