The image shows two sides of an ancient Roman coin, presumably of bronze, against a stark black background.

  • Obverse (Left): The coin's front features a detailed profile of a male figure, likely a Roman emperor, with a laurel wreath crown and an inscription encircling the image. The inscription is partially visible and seems to include some letters. The coin is heavily worn, with the detail diminished due to age and use.

  • Reverse (Right): The reverse of the coin has a depiction of a standing or walking figure, potentially a deity or a personification of a concept. To the left of the figure some letters, the numeral "S" and the letter "C" are present. The inscription is partially visible and also heavily worn, with the detail diminished due to age and use.

Both coins show a significant amount of wear, with a mottled, oxidized surface. This would be consistent with a coin that has been buried for centuries and has undergone exposure to moisture and the elements. The presence of a centimeter ruler in the image provides a sense of scale.
