Two sides of a circular, silver-toned medal feature raised reliefs. On the left, stylized figures stand at a podium beside a couple kneeling in prayer; text reads "FREEDOM OF SPEECH" and "RELIGION." On the right, a farmer holding wheat stands near a cow, facing a seated woman lifting a small child. The inscription "FREEDOM FROM WANT AND FROM FEAR" arcs along the top edge. All figures appear smooth and simplified.
