and another picture of a makers mark?

The mark on the bottom is very small, this is about the best picture i could take.

backside:

Yesterday found this medal in the mail. To be honest i don't know much about Russian/communist/socialist medals. However, one of my collecting area's is motherhood medals and this seemed interesting enough to get it.

Can someone maybe tell me a bit more about the belarussian motherhood medals?

Maybe show a picture of different classes or just any information about these? Also did they come with an award document/book? Are there really only 5000 given out? etc.

Any information would be appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Gaston

i am following this topic with much interest, thank you.

The problem is now we know THIS seller, but how many other sellers might do the same???

Hi,

no it's made of metal, and VERY heavy...

Appearantly it comes from an old grave, ill make a picture of the backside too tonight...

How about something else?

(yes it has swords?)

Christer, nice and interesting collecting area, plese post more when you find them, i like these cards and the story behind them ;-)

regards,

Gaston

Danny, nothing wrong there, good looking cross.

there are slight differences between motherscrosses e.g the the swastika in the centre is sometimes "loose" in the white enamel and sometimes only touching with one or two of it's arms the border, but this one looks just fine to me. The gold finish looks great too!

Gaston
