Hi, further to these posts I went back to my bits. One of my N.Z.Scottish badges came with a tartan backing, is this correct for some period of use or is it something added to make it flashier( more saleable) Also I mocked up an NZRAC badge as described by Clay. Is this the correct backing? It is shown next to the bullion badge which has the red but a black cloth backing? Thanks in advance Mike

Hi Mike, The NZ Scottish did not wear a black silk backing or tartan backing on their hat badges.
Your 2 inch green diamond is a good mock up for late 1950s to 1960s period.
