Default Opinions Sought

Being only a collector of RM related items I end up with vatious lot items which, every so often I try to clear through Ebay.
I try to be as honest (and as realistic on pricing) as possible and therefore would appreciate the opinions of those on the forum with greater experience in the relevant field on the items pictured below.
If possible I would like to gain your valued opinions on period, unit, authenticity and approximate value of items.
Thanks in anticipation
Ray

Default Thankyou

Thomas
Thanks for the info
What would be a fair price to ask for these two in your opinion?

Thomas - or others
Whilst I appreciate that it is hard to tell from pictures alone, is there anything glaringly obvious to say that these are copies?

Both look okay and are common, The Canadian more so than the beret badge.

Rgds,

Thomas.
