The sculpture is a relief carving on a medal featuring the profile of a young man with an inscription. The subject is wearing a high-collared garment and a cap with decorative elements. The material is a silver-toned metal, giving the medal a monochromatic appearance with varying shades of grey. The relief is three-dimensional, with the carved figure elevated from the background, providing depth and definition to the facial features and clothing details. The inscription reads "CHARLES IX. D.G. FRANCOR. REX" alongside the year "1561."
