The same thing happened with my dad's 1966 Gibson Hummingbird. One of my brother's idiot friends put it in a stand and it fell out and cracked the headstock in a half. I'm sure it was worth several thousand dollars, because it had all its original parts and it still played like a beaut. We had it fixed, but the little e string is very tinny sounding.
I've been lucky thus far with my violin. I'm sure it's not worth nearly as much as your mother's was, but it is still beautiful and plays amazingly.
