The Shipwreck Medal by Salathiel Ellis: A copper-colored, circular medal with a raised rim. A man kneels on the ground and holds another person. The kneeling man wears pants. The person held has their legs bent behind the kneeling man. The background on the right shows a ship on the ocean; on the left a building on a hill; and a curved line over both. The scene includes ground with rocks. The medal is on a light gray background with a shadow to the right.
