Description

German medal about RMS Lusitania, August 1915

The inscription reads:

Keine Bannware!

Der Grossdampfer
Lusitania
Durch Ein Deutscher (Correct form should be Deutsches)
Tauchboot Versenkt
5 May 1915

Which roughly translates as "No Contraband!/The large steamer Lusitania sunk by a German submarine/5 May 1915".

The "Y" in "May" marks it as a contemporary replica.
