Original era manufacture. Not sure what this is but it's very sell made and quite dramatic looking. 30x50 mm eagle, with a profile of a German helmet with crossed swords behind it. Original green/white silk ribbon perhaps indicating Saxony. Normal age and wear, no suspension pin. Thank you Selwyn for this information:Your medal is actually the Austrian 'Heimwehr' Medal of merit awarded for the suppression of a communist uprising in Vienna in February 1934.
