The image shows a circular sculptural medallion or coin-like object with a profile relief of a man facing to the right. The man is wearing a hat and the sculpture captures intricate details of his facial features and clothing. The material appears to be bronze or copper, giving it a brown and weathered look. Inscribed in capital letters along the edge of the medallion is "IOHANNES CARON DEL" with more text that is partially visible. The background is black.
