MOTHERS CROSS IN GOLD WITH ORIGINAL CASE AND MINIATURE.

A nice example of the ‘Mother’s Cross’ medal in Gold. Awarded to German Mothers for the number of children born during the period. This was the highest grade. The ‘Ehrenkreuz der Deutschen Mutter‘ was instituted in 1938 and awarded from 1939 onwards.
This has a full length ribbon, the original blue case with imprinted cross on the lid. Maker on inner lining is Friedrich Linden of Ludenscheld. The box also contains the original miniature award with pin back. Unfortunately the enamel on this piece is damaged but details are still present.
