Medal of the Marquis de Lafayette

The medal features a dark brown, circular metal object with a raised profile portrait of a man facing right. The man has curly hair and wears a military uniform with epaulets on his shoulders. A bow is visible at the back of his neck. The text "GENERAL LAFayette NE EN" is inscribed along the top edge of the medal, and more text is visible on the bottom edge, but it is illegible. The medal casts a shadow on a light gray background.
