Default RHG and RHA for review

I believe these are bad, but of course need to be sure before they become landfill. Thanks,

I can confirm that the RHG is a fake, but can anyone confirm the RHA?

Could the RHA be a beret badge?

There were some really awful RHA badges, just from the photographs, I don't like it as a badge, but, I certainly like the materials used with the watery pale gold braze, I would put it to one side for now and have a close look at every example you encounter.

Either the RHA has been relugged or it is a fake in my opinion. I have a couple which are die cast, not die stamped, so don't know this pattern.
Cheers,
Alex
