Hello,
As far as I know it was awarded him because of direction of the siege of Győr (Raab) in 1849.
He was wearing it as a message for the hungarians... He stopped to wear it after 1914.

Hi,
I think it's a group leader's badge (or award).
There is a same one here: http://www.netlabor.hu/roncskutatas/modules/myalbum/photo.php?lid=18991

Hi Peter,
Yours one is an 1891M belt buckle (very nice ) and the 2nd one is a 1911M for enlisted soldiers in the Royal Hungarian Army. They are heavily faked and private purchased versions as well...
