The image shows a round, flat medal with a relief sculpture on its front side. The sculpture features a person on horseback crossing a bridge in an outdoor setting with trees and distant landforms in the background. The scene is detailed with intricate lines depicting the scenery and is crafted from a bronze-colored material. An inscription in Latin surrounds the edge of the medal with "PROVIDENTIA PRINCIPIS" at the top and "VIAS MUNITAS MDCCXXVII" at the bottom. A small perforation near the top suggests it may have been used for display or worn on a chain.
