The sculpture depicts the scene of the crucifixion, with three figures on crosses. The central figure is larger and prominently shown, flanked by two smaller figures on crosses. Below them, there are people looking up. The sculpture is circular with detailed raised reliefs. It appears to be made of a golden-colored material, possibly bronze or a similar metal. The artwork is intricate and compact, resembling a medallion or a disc for display.
