A 1st Type German Second World War Mothers Cross in Silver.
A very good example of the extremely hard to find 1st type Mothers Cross in Silver. Produced in 1938 to 1939, the exterior designs are identical to both patterns with blue enamel and silver finish to the face side. On the reverse side the 1st type has the inscription Das Kind Adelt Die Mutter (the child ennobles the mother). The award is complete with its original blue and silver ribbon, which is rather stained. Fitted into its presentation case with the makers mark of A.Rettenmaler printed to the upper inner imitation silk lining to the lid. To the exterior the image of the award with slight scuffing to the lid itself, good condition, scarce £1,000-£1,400
