Hi,

You have found a most special Ehrenbecher, also known as the Thor Bokal : the Ehrenbecher für erfolgreiche Angriffe aus der Luft, Ehrenbecher for successfull attacks from the air. I have never seen one before. Don't have any idea how many were produced, but IMHO very very few.
This is indeed for the London attack by Erich Linnarz on the 31 May/1 July 1915.

Best from Johan
