NSDAP-Hitlerbewegung party badge

G'day all,
I am assuming this is an Austrian party badge, it is marked: R. SCHANES WIEN X111, am I right? Please excuse the poor pics, I know they are not good but they are the best I can get with my poor photographic skills. Any advice would be greatly apreciated, thanks fellas,

Dave.

Gday Dave,
How ever good the photo mate they are always "pretty little things".
I hope all's good with it.

I have not seen a pin set up like that on a NSDAP badge. What size is the badge?
Closer photos are essential too Dave

It is 23.4 mm across the face of the badge, but I have my doubts about this thing. Sorry about the pics boys I know they are not much chop but they are the best I can get on my camera, I took a heap of pics and they were the best two I could get.

Hi Dave, what does the text say on the badge obverse?

Cheers, Ade.

I Think it is supposed to be a Hilterbewegungs badge. Not liking it though, but I could be wrong.

It just hasn't got the hardware I normally see on these badges.

Thanks Tom.

Hi Dave, it is good in my opinion. I have seen similar ones by this maker but with the addition "Ges. Gesch" marking. The NSDAP-Hitlerbewegung was only around between 1927 and 1933, when it was banned.

Cheers, Ade.
