    The little yellow white and red ribbon on stickpin with mini medal is the Spanish "Military Medal"-- bravery award for enlisted men. Can't quite tell from the mini of what era, and don't know what normal Spanish wear was for such lapel wear, but quite interesting.

    Not sure what some of the tiny minis are supposed to be, other than Austrian awards. If they were for ribbon bar wear, there would be little splints on back of each. The crowned Prussian eagle in shield looks like a Beamten shoulder board device but the color and materials aren't quite right, as if maybe some sort of cast ? patriotic pin.i

    In post #1, RDH was for the Reichsbund Deutscher Hausfrauen. This was the membership pin for this housewive's organization. There was also a version with a wreath that was used as an award.

    In post #3, BdG is a membership pin for a local branch or sub-group of the DHV; the Deutscher Handlungshilfen-Verband. This was some kind of medical welfare or assistance organization.

    "50 Jahr" is a long service award for a member of the local baker's association of the town of Pfalz.
