re-badged Ebay sporran
One sees this all the time, old civilian sporrans with military badges stuck on them, or in this case an old Black Watch sporran with a Cameron Highlanders cap badge stuck on.

Obviously actual Cameron Highlanders sporrans looked entirely different, and they had a dedicated sporran badge, not a cap badge.
Here are the three Cameron Highlanders sporrans
Left: Other Ranks (also worn by officers in Service Dress)
Centre: pipers
Right: officers Full Dress and Levee Dress
Here's a Black Watch sporran with its original badge. Note the cantle shape which was unique to the Black Watch.
