This would be maybe called in English the Bannate (or even
Palatinate) of Laita. Laita is betetr known otherwise as the
river that borders between (simply said) Austrian and Hungarian
crown lands, Cilaitania and Translaitania.
BTW, what's the thing captioned "A Lajtabansagi Csendorseg
jelzese" - it's a kind of a police insignia. Does the
writing on it suggest that the German name of Lajtabansag was
already Burgenland?

Concering Željko's question - as far as I know, the answer is
no.

I made some reconstruction of the symbols of the
Lajtabánság: one variant in which whole coat of arms is on
white stripe and second variant with shield is on white. The
reconstructions are based on the "Constitution of the
Lajtabánság" and the 1st Decree of the Governing Council
According to the Constitution of the Lajtabánság (translated
from the Official Journal of the Lajtabánság; Felsoor 1921.
October 20):
