Default Rifle Brigade Belt Plates

Over the last few months ive been corresponding with the lady who is in charge of the Rifle Brigade section of the Rifles Museum. In 1922 ,a paper was published in the RB chronicle regarding belt plates that have been worn by the Regiment.
In the paper ,the 1st plate has the Angel from the rear of the Waterloo medal on top. According to the essay,Nos 2 and 3 have the same cross and wreath but No2 has an "Eagle" on top and No3 a Royal Crown.
I have never seen any evidence that relate to 2 and 3. Although,there is a version of No1 with wider ,larger wings. Could this be the "Eagle" ?
Can anyone throw any light on this for me ?

Attached is an image of No1
