I think you need to include the engraved text next to the image, in the primary content of the web site. That's effectively what people who sell commemorative coins, etc., do in their print advertisement. Incidentally, even without contrast problems, you cant easily rotate desk top screens to read around the edge of the disk, which makes some difficult to read because of the varying angles of the text. Assuming we are talking about <https://www.iop.org/about/awards>, I think you could make a feature of the description, by adding a few word about the contribution of the person shown on the medal to science.
