This is a photograph of a round, bronze medallion featuring a profile portrait in bas-relief. The medallion shows a figure wearing a tall, pointed cap and elaborate garment, with detailed facial features. The outer edge of the medallion contains an inscription of raised letters encircling the portrait. A small hole is present at the top. The surface of the medallion shows signs of age, with a patina. The craftsmanship suggests a classical design.
