Hello and welcome to Numista!

 

Found one in an auction on NumisBids:  https://www.numisbids.com/n.php?p=lot&sid=1254&lot=2950  unsold but with an estimate of 500 euro.  Caption says:

Blimey Google is a bit weird on translation.

 

To me it says

 

In memory of the 150 existing greatest years of labour union 

 

Alte Hoffnung Gottes is the name of the mineral works the medal was created for in Germany.

 

Gluck Auf on the other side means good luck

 

Edited to add here's a link to the place it was made in commemoration for Alte Hoffnung Gottes Mine, Kleinvoigtsberg, Großschirma, Mittelsachsen, Saxony, Germany (mindat.org)
