Medallion by Henri Emile Allouard. Two bronze-colored circular medallions. The left medallion features a woman in a long dress standing on a battlefield. The woman holds a wheat stalk and flowers in her hands. There are several people and a horse on the ground around her. The words 'POUR LA FRANCE POUR L'HUMANITE' are written around the top edge. The right medallion depicts an angel with wings sitting next to a pedestal with writing. Two people stand on either side of the pedestal. The person on the right holds an urn with a cloth draped over it. The words 'AUX HEROS INCONNUS' are written around the top edge.
