A circular bronze medal depicts a woman with wavy hair and a draped gown floating with arms outstretched over a relief map. Her smooth, rounded figure contrasts against the textured landmasses of the Americas, Europe, and Africa. Billowing clouds rest beneath her feet. Inscribed around the border in spaced capital letters are the words "WORLD PEACE." The glint of light highlights the brown patina and varied textures across the surface.
