Two sides of a bronze medal feature relief imagery. On the left, a shirtless man with a bandaged head sits while a helmeted figure kneels and holds a small rectangular object toward him. On the right, a large mushroom cloud rises above a horizontal ledge inscribed with the words "WORLD UNITY OR OBLIVION." Below this ledge, several prone and tangled human figures lie at the bottom.
