This is an attractive - and with certainty desirable! - miniature of an: 'Ehrenkreuz der deutschen Mutter - erste Stufe' (or: golden-class mothers'-cross) being a neatly maker- (ie. 'L/11'-) marked example that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly issued ie. moderately used- and/or worn-), condition. The smaller-sized award has no enamel damage and comes in a very nice condition overall: it shows the to be expected motto on its back which reads: '16 December 1938 - Adolf Hitler'. The (bright) golden-toned finish is just a tiny bit tarnished (mainly on its back), but the piece was never cleaned nor polished. The small badge (having an approximate height of only: 2 cms.) shows great, pronounced detail: just like its larger- ie. 'regular'-sized counterparts. The miniature comes mounted onto its original safety-pin-attachment, fitted for easy attaching it to a dress (or even uniform). The miniature - that is a typical 'LDO'-type specimen that was produced by the: 'Wilhelm Deumer'-company as was based in the town of Lüdenscheid - was recently found at a German private-household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a nice occasion to acquire neat and or: 'L/11'-marked: 'Ehrenkreuz der Deutschen Mutter in Gold'-miniature that is I deem accordingly priced!
