Here is a description of the image:

The image showcases two ancient-looking coins on a stark black background. The coins appear to be made of a weathered, brownish metal, possibly copper or bronze. Each coin has an irregular, organic shape, suggesting they were hand-struck or have been subjected to significant wear over time.

The surfaces of the coins are heavily textured with areas of raised relief, indicating that they were stamped with designs or inscriptions, although the details are somewhat obscured due to age and wear. There's a spectrum of iridescent colors shimmering across the metal's surface, indicative of oxidation or chemical reactions that have taken place over the coin's lifespan.

A ruler is placed vertically beside the right coin, which allows for the scaling of the coins in centimeters. The dark background allows the coins to be the primary focus of the image, making it easy to see details about their appearance.
