The front and back of a circular bronze medal feature figures in raised relief. On the left, two men face left in profile above text naming Raymond Poincare and Georges Clemenceau. On the right, three women stand in a horse-drawn chariot; one raises a banner as soldiers walk beside them. Text at the bottom reads Metz-Strasbourg, December 1918. The surface, aged with a warm brown patina, highlights fine details in the clothing.
