Here's a nice tidy 2nd Class. Wasn't 6th Class green? and 5th blue?

A reward for no children, a "special" night out with Lavrentij Berija.

Medals of motherhood were awarded to:
Mothers who have given birth and raised five children - Medal Class II
Mothers who gave birth and raised six children - Medal, First Class
Was delivered when the last child born had completed at least one year and all the other children had to be alive.
The first class medal was made in silver, and the second class in Bronze.

I show my medals of the Motherhood of first and second class with the documents of assignment.

Here is a rather well worn 2nd Class. No doubt the young ones will have been grabbing at this whilst on the chest of the busy mother (or just generally playing with it as children frequently do).
