This appears to be an ancient coin photographed against a black background with a measurement scale on the right side. The coin is heavily weathered and shows signs of corrosion, with a brownish-green patina typical of aged bronze or copper. The surface has raised relief details that appear worn but still visible, though the specific imagery is difficult to make out clearly due to the coin's deteriorated condition. The coin has an irregular, somewhat oval shape, which is common for ancient coins that were struck by hand rather than machine-minted. Based on its appearance and condition, this could be an archaeological artifact from classical antiquity.

The image shows two sides of an ancient bronze coin, likely Roman, against a dark background. To the right, there is a centimeter scale.

One side of the coin features a profile of a head wearing a laurel wreath. The details are somewhat obscured by age and wear, but the general shape of the head and the wreath are visible.

Here is a description of the image:

The image showcases two ancient coins against a black background. The coins appear to be made of bronze and have a weathered, aged appearance with a greenish-brown patina.

  • Coin 1 (left): This coin displays a profile bust of a person, likely a ruler or deity, facing right. The bust has a prominent nose and chin, and appears to be wearing some sort of head covering or helmet. The lettering around the bust seems partially visible, but due to the erosion and the small size, the text isn't fully readable.

  • Coin 2 (right): This coin features what seems to be a stylized architectural design, possibly a temple or building. There are vertical and horizontal lines suggesting the facade and the base. Again, the lettering is present, though not clear.

The coins are set against a solid black backdrop, allowing the viewer to focus on the details of each coin. There's a scale of measurement on the right side of the image, indicating a centimeter scale. The quality suggests the picture was taken to preserve or study these items.

The image shows two sides of an ancient coin, likely made of bronze given its coloration and patina. The coin appears to be from the Roman Empire, based on the style and iconography.

Left Side (Obverse):

  • The obverse features a portrait of a person facing right. The portrait is typical of Roman coins, suggesting it is likely an emperor or a significant figure from that era.
  • The inscription around the portrait is partially legible, but the wear and corrosion make it difficult to read completely.

Right Side (Reverse):

  • The reverse side displays an architectural structure, possibly a temple or monument, which is common on Roman coins.
  • There is an inscription below the structure, which is also partially legible due to wear.

Additional Details:

  • The coin shows signs of significant wear and corrosion, indicating it has been in circulation or buried for a long period.
  • There is a scale on the right side of the image, indicating the coin's size, which appears to be around 2 cm in diameter.

  • Central Design: The obverse side features a profile portrait of an emperor, facing right. The figure is wearing a diadem, a typical symbol of imperial authority in Byzantine coinage. The details of the face are somewhat weathered but still recognizable.
  • Background: The background is filled with a pattern that might represent a decorative or symbolic motif, though it is not clearly defined due to wear and corrosion.

Reverse:

  • Central Design: The reverse side depicts a structure, possibly a façade of a building or an altar, with two figures standing in front of it. The figures appear to be in a pose of reverence or worship. The structure has a central column or pillar flanked by two figures.
  • Inscription: Below the central design, there is an inscription in Greek, though the text is partially worn and difficult to fully decipher. The inscription likely contains the name of the emperor or other relevant information about the coin.

Overall Condition:

  • The coin is irregular in shape, suggesting it might have been struck by hand or has been damaged over time. There are signs of corrosion and wear, which is common in ancient coins due to their age and the materials used.
