The Downton one might be worth something, but the others you can easly buy new for not too much.

The Downton badge is definitely NOT an original 1960's item, it looks very much like one of the poor quality repro ones that Minispares used to sell.

An original Downton badge should look like this



The most obvious differences are the font, the repro badge font is all wrong, no italicised letters, and the black lines are always missing on those repros.
