    All I have to go on are the tables in the back of Barnes.

    The table of the Scottish regiments in 1800 gives the 73rd and the 79th as the only ones with green facings. ("Facings" in the 18th century referred to the colour of the collar and cuffs and the turn-backs, if any. The jacket illustrated appears to be singlebreasted without turned back lapels.)

    The table of the Scottish regiments raised after 1745 but disbanded before 1800 doesn't give uniform details.
