This image depicts an ancient coin made of copper or bronze, showing signs of significant corrosion and patina with a greenish hue. On the left side, the coin's face appears to feature a faint depiction of a human figure or bust, possibly resembling an emperor or a deity, surrounded by an inscription (though it is largely eroded). On the right side, the reverse of the coin shows what appears to be a monogram or a symbol, potentially including letters such as "M" or "K," along with other markings below it. The edges of the coin are irregular and worn, suggesting age and wear. A scale visible on the right side indicates measurements in centimeters to represent the coin's actual size.

The image displays two sides of an ancient, corroded coin. The left side of the image shows the obverse of the coin, which has a faint image of a seated or standing figure in the center, surrounded by some indistinct letters or symbols. The coin is heavily corroded, with a green and brown patina, likely from oxidation over time.

The right side of the image shows the reverse of the coin, which features a large letter "M" prominently in the center. There are other letters or symbols around the "M" that are difficult to make out due to corrosion. The overall color and condition of this side are similar to the obverse, with a mix of green and brown from corrosion.

There is a scale to the right of the coin, marked in centimeters, which gives an idea of the coin's size. The scale markings suggest that the coin is a few centimeters in diameter.

Based on the imagery and style, this coin could potentially be from the Byzantine Empire, as the "M" is a common symbol on Byzantine follis coins, which represent a denomination of forty nummi.
