The sculpture is a round, flat medal featuring inscriptions etched into its surface. The material appears to be a metallic substance, likely bronze or a similar alloy, evidenced by its dull, brownish-gray coloration. The inscriptions are written in Latin, containing a series of names and titles arranged in centered lines across the disc-like surface. The text appears to be raised from the surface, suggesting it was cast or engraved on the medal. The formations of the letters showcase a historical style typical of engraving techniques. The overall appearance is that of a commemorative or honorary piece, rendered in a subdued metallic tone with a slightly tarnished surface.
