A circular bronze medal, finished in a mottled brown patina, features a central pair of vertical stalks: one head of grain and one jagged stem. A scythe blade sweeps across the lower half, its handle extending left and tip arching upward. Raised block letters, "THAT SHALL HE ALSO REAP," are interspersed between these agricultural motifs. Tonal variations and surface marks create a weathered texture behind the crisp, relief-carved design.
