A bronze medal depicts figures in relief. On our left, a winged horse rears its head upward. Beside it, a nude male figure faces away with his right arm raised. In the center, a nude female figure reaches both arms toward the top edge. On our right, another nude male figure stands in profile, resting his hand on a rock. Engraved text appears along the bottom edge of the dark, circular bronze.
