Sorry to crash!

I have an interesting dilemma. My mother-in-law, who is herself a DZ, has one of the DZ founder's pins. This founder never had children, but married my mother-in-laws grandfather and passed the pin down to her when she died. (I should point out that my mother in-law considers this founder to be a grandmother figure to her, although they are of no blood relation.)

My mother-in-law has no girl children herself, but has told me that she intends to hang onto the pin in case we produce any DZ legacies. (heehee) Well, I, of course, think that the pin rightfully belongs to DZ and she should give the pin to DZ headquarters where it can be displayed. But she is very attached to it because of its sentimental value and because of the hope of passing it on to a legacy of her own.

Do you think I should press the issue with her? I don't feel it is my place to let the headquarters know that she has it (because I don't think they have ANY idea that it even exists anymore!) but on the other hand, I think someone should know that they need to ask for it at some point. Not sure what to do...
