The 1916 Medal is a bronze circular medal approximately in diameter. The design replicates the official Irish Army crest, a sunburst surmounted by an 8-pointed star. The
obverse of the medal bears a depiction of the death of
Cúchulainn, partially surrounded by a sword belt. On the reverse is the inscription:
SEAĊTAIN NA CÁSCA 1916, which translates to "Easter week 1916". The medal is suspended from a ribbon of half green and half orange, the green to the wearer's right. At the top of the ribbon is a suspension bar from which the ribbon hangs bearing an
interlaced Celtic design. ==See also==
