Peace be upon you and God's mercy and blessings.
Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Khamenei and Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Sistani (may God protect them):
This does not nullify the prayer. However, for men, wearing gold, whether it has a human face or any other drawing, does nullify the prayer.
May you be successful in all good.
