A circular bronze medal features a profile of Joan of Arc facing right, her shoulder-length hair and armored shoulder rendered in high relief. Her hand grasps a sword hilt angled upward. Raised Latin text, "CHRISTI MILES," curves along the left edge, balanced by "BEATA JOANNA D'ARC" on the right. Below, "NEWMAN" is inscribed. The warm brown metal glints off the raised figure and letters against a textured, shadowed background.
