      Gran Sasso - I'd like to echo the comment made by irish; very nice indeed.

      I recognize the Federal Cross of Merit. What are the other two?

      Thanks - TJ

        Gran Sasso,

        A nice group of awards to members of your family.

        TJ,

        The two awards are;
        1-Ehrenzeichen des Deutschen Roten Kreuzes in silver. Since the miniature is mounted on a bow it would have been presented to a woman. Gran Sasso's great aunt probably. The award certificate is next to it;
        2-an award of the Catholic Church. It appears to have been preented by Pope Paul the 6th. The title of the award is on the award document displayed next to it.

        Regards,

        Gordon

          Seems to be the order of St. Sylvester.
