A gold-colored metal relief plaque with a rectangular frame. The plaque features three human heads side-by-side in profile. The heads are facing right; the leftmost head is a woman with her hair styled up, the middle head is a child with short hair, and the rightmost head is a man with short hair. The woman and child are looking at the man. The plaque appears to have a textured surface. The background behind the plaque is gray.
