Hello everyone, I did a search and the topic of mother's crosses seems to come up in several different forums so I am doing a crosspost in this case. I found these items among some others at an estate sale in TX that kicks off today. I am in Minnesota and the estate sale manager has been communicating with me and sent me every photo I asked for. They had Jackson Armory in Dallas, TX come in and validate their items and I also called that dealer directly and spoke with them. Each cross is $100. Price is form, as anything that doesn't sell will be purchased by above mentioned dealer and taken to SOS. Aside from the one cross seeming to miss a bit of gold on the front, everything seem good? Ribbons are original as far as I know. Opinions? Concerns? Pricing?

They both look good to me but the price seems a little high considering they’re coming from an estate sale. -
What would be a more appropriate price in your opinion?Originally posted by Rob W. View PostComment

Both are all original including ribbon and cases from these pictures. I don't think the price is unreasonable considering they are in their original cases but just my opinion.

Thanks Steve. I see they are two different manufacturers, not sure if that really weighs into value on medals and awards.Originally posted by no1canuck View PostComment

I don't think it will affect the price on a mothers cross. But with other awards some makers bring premium prices.

Good to know, thanks. I'm also picking up a set of wound badges (all three classes) and an Eastern Front medal from the same estate seller. Total comes to $300.Originally posted by no1canuck View PostComment
