I may be wrong but it could mean zero Clasp & Rose was issued, someone more clued up on WW1 medals will hopefully respond.

Victory Medal
British War Medal
1914 Star

The clasp, for the 1914 Star, was instituted in 1919, and had to be applied for personally by the recipients, of whom a large number had either been demobilised from the army in early 1919 so were not receiving army orders and thus neglected to apply or had died in the intervening period.
