    Here's a tiny cross I picked up this weekend, 31x21mm. I assume the coat of arms is the imperial version for the City of Vienna. Any ideas about the significance of this badge?

    cheers

    Its Austro-Hungarian patriotic badge from WWI period, in the shield is austrian double-headed eagle with coat of arms of Habsburg-Lothringen (so called little coat of arms of Austria)

    Thanks Iver, much appreciated :beer: I noticed the present Vienna shield is identical, except for the lack of crown and with a single headed eagle, hence my assumption.

    cheers
