Thx Tom

I've got a bad feeling about it,soft on detail and top pimples wavery.

I actually think it's a good one...it certainly isn't the "Chaos-pattern Fake"...The reverse hardware is correct, and we often encounter originals with an imperfect dot-pattern...

The rear set up is unique to one maker, Forster & Barth. The obverse is a close match, although I can't be 100% I think on balance this is a genuine one. Can't see a makers mark but they were not all marked, the LDO number was L/21.

Regards, Ned.

A MM'd zincer, that's nice. The one posted by the O.P. is tombak.

Thanks for opinions all of you...
This badge, it almost looks too clean, is it a real one? I know there are some fake 30's out there, so looking for a opinion on this one too

Thanks again my friends

Looks to be a good silver 30 (Hauptmunzamt Wien) in zinc. Obverse is crisp and well defined whilst the reverse shows a die flaw like a scratch that is found on some known originals. See pic's below.
