This image shows both sides of an ancient coin-like artifact, likely made of metal and heavily worn with age. The surface of the object exhibits signs of corrosion, including greenish oxidation (possibly indicative of copper alloy). The left side appears to display a stylized face or figure, possibly a crowned individual in low relief, surrounded by circular text which is partially illegible due to wear. Additional details, such as decorative elements or symbols, can faintly be seen beneath the face, but are obscured due to the erosion. The right side contains geometric patterns, including straight lines intersecting to form shapes resembling triangles or a "K" design. The edges are irregular, suggesting damage or missing fragments. A scale in centimeters is visible along the right edge of the image, providing a reference for size. The black background offers contrast for the artifact's surface texture.

Here is a description of the image:

The image displays two sides of a possibly ancient, circular artifact, likely a coin or seal, set against a black background. Both sides are heavily worn, showing significant damage and aging. The item's material appears to be a bronze or similar metal, as indicated by the greenish oxidation in some areas.

The image shows two sides of an ancient coin, likely of Roman origin, given the style and design. Here's a detailed summary:

  1. Left Side (Obverse):

    • The coin features a profile bust of a figure facing right. This is a common design on Roman coins, often depicting an emperor or a significant figure.
    • Surrounding the bust is a circular inscription, which is partially visible and appears to be in Latin. The letters are not entirely clear due to wear and corrosion, but this is typical for ancient coins.
    • The coin shows signs of wear and corrosion, indicating its age and use over time.
  2. Right Side (Reverse):

    • This side displays a design that includes a prominent letter "X" in the center. This could be a numeral or symbol with specific significance, possibly related to the value of the coin or an emblem.
    • Surrounding the "X" are additional letters or symbols, which are also partially worn and difficult to decipher.
    • The coin's surface shows similar signs of wear and corrosion as the obverse side.
  3. General Observations:

    • The coin is relatively small, as indicated by the scale on the right side of the image.
    • The metal appears to be bronze or a similar alloy, which was commonly used for Roman coins.
    • The wear and corrosion suggest that the coin has been in circulation and has aged over many years.

This coin is likely of historical significance and would be of interest to numismatists (coin collectors) and historians studying ancient Roman currency.
