The image shows two ancient Roman coins. The coins appear to be made of a metallic material, likely bronze or silver. They have intricate designs and inscriptions on both the front and back sides.

On the front side of the coins, there is an image of what appears to be a Roman emperor or deity, with a laurel wreath or crown on their head. The inscriptions around the image are in Latin, but I cannot make out the exact text.
