The relief carving on a circular medal depicts a man in profile facing to the right. He wears a cap with a brim and a tunic with a wide collar, indicative of historical attire. The medal is made from a dark metal, likely bronze or a similar material, giving it a rich, brownish color with subtle highlights. The subject's hair is visible under the cap, and the details of his facial features and clothing are finely rendered. Surrounding the figure is an inscription in raised lettering that forms a curved border within the circle of the medal.
