As requested, I am taking my time to go piece by piece and explain a little bit about each. This is the first piece that I am going to show, and it is a 1st class Ehrenkreuz der Deutschen Mutter. It came in three different grades; 1st class (gold), 2nd class (silver) and 3rd class (bronze). In order for Maria to win this award (as stated in her death card), she had to have 8 more children. To qualify, Maria had to not only have 8 or more children, but also prove that both parents were of Duetschblutig (German blood), the mother was worthy of the award (not a trifiling thot) and all of the children were born alive. In my opinion, what makes this piece so amazing, is not only the shape of the cross, but I have the original case in great shape, as well as the death card. Here are a few more photos and of course, the Wikipedia .
