  • Left side (obverse): It features a faint profile of a person, possibly a ruler or deity. The outline of the face, including a nose and facial structure, can be seen. Surrounding the portrait are indistinct inscriptions that suggest the coin's origin or denomination.

The coin shows significant wear and corrosion, but you can still make out some relief details on both the obverse (front) and reverse (back) sides. The coin is photographed against a black background with a measurement scale visible on the right side. While the specific details of the engravings are somewhat obscured by age and wear, this type of coin is typical of those circulated during the Roman Empire, with what appears to be portrait imagery on one side and likely a figure or scene on the reverse.

The image shows two sides of a coin. The coin appears to be quite old, with a dark patina indicative of age and oxidation, particularly noticeable on the surface of the bronze material. The coin is set against a black background, which contrasts sharply with the coin's color and texture, making the details more visible.

  • Obverse (Front Side): The obverse side of the coin features a depiction that seems to be a figure, possibly a person or a deity, wearing a headdress and draped in a garment. The figure is intricately designed, and the coin shows signs of wear and corrosion, with a patina covering much of the surface.
