Obverse (Left Side):

  • The coin appears to have a bust of a figure, possibly a Roman emperor or deity, facing right.
  • The inscription around the bust is partially visible and seems to be in Latin. The letters "OF" and "AVG" are discernible, which are common abbreviations on Roman coins. "AVG" stands for "Augustus," a title given to Roman emperors.

Reverse (Right Side):

  • The reverse side also shows signs of wear and corrosion.
  • There is an indistinct image in the center, which might be a figure or an object, but it is not easily identifiable due to the coin's condition.
