Chris,
What you have here is just one of many campaign buttons for the 1933 elections.
This one is telling you to vote yes for Adolf Hitler. I have no idea why this one has a coin as it didn't come that way originally.

Someone was probably bored and figured out that it fit in there perfectly.

What's the normal market value of something like this?

Thanks,

Is this the badge that was given out once you had voted? I was watching a Pathe movie clip the other day & it showed voters receiving a small badge once they had cast their vote.

I'll see if I can find the clip again & grab a still.

No I was wrong. The one given out after voting was inscribed "Freedom & bread" but that was the 1936 election.

It varies from $10 to $15 just depends on who's selling.
