The image shows an ancient coin with two distinct sides. On the left, the coin features a detailed profile of a head, likely representing a figure of historical significance, possibly a deity or a ruler. The head is adorned with a decorated helmet, and there are visible features such as an eye, eyebrow, a nose, lips, and an ear, accentuated with lines denoting hair or headgear ornamentation. On the right side, the coin depicts an owl with large circular eyes, standing upright. To the right of the owl, there are Greek letters – "ΑΘΕ" which could represent an abbreviation of "ΑΘΗΝΑΙΩΝ" translating to "of the Athenians," suggesting that this coin is an Athenian tetradrachm. The owl, which is a symbol associated with Athena, further supports this identification. Additionally, on the right of the owl, there appears to be a vertical twig or sprig and a crescent shape to the left of the owl. The coin has a slightly irregular round shape, indicative of the time period and manufacturing process. There is a scale along the bottom of the image for size reference, denoting centimeters, signifying the small size of the coin, which appears to be slightly bigger than one centimeter in diameter. The background of the image is black, highlighting the silver color and details of the coin.
