A circular bronze medal depicts the side profile of Foch facing left. The relief shows a figure from the chest up with short hair and a thick mustache wearing a high-collared military jacket. The inscription "F . FOCH . MARECHAL . DE . FRANCE ." curves along the top border. On the left, Roman numerals "MCMXVIII" are inscribed, while the artist's name, "G.
