A circular bronze medal depicts a turkey in high relief standing on a stepped base. Facing our left with puffed feathers and a fanned tail, the bird tucks its head into a wrinkled neck. The word "AMERICA" curves along the upper left edge. On our right, the name "ALBERT-LAESSLE" sits above a small circular emblem. The warm brown surface catches light on the intricate textures of the bird's plumage.
