Qwen

Created by Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct on 2025-07-01

The image shows two ancient coins placed side by side against a black background. The coins appear to be made of a metallic material, possibly bronze or copper, and exhibit a patina, which suggests they have been exposed to the elements for a considerable time. The coins are round with a central hole, indicating they were likely used as a form of currency or as tokens.

The design and script suggest that these coins could be from a Middle Eastern origin, possibly from the Islamic or Byzantine periods.

The condition of the coins, with visible wear and the patina, implies they are quite old and have been through a significant amount of time. The presence of a ruler on the right side of the image provides a sense of scale, allowing viewers to estimate the size of the coins. The ruler is marked with centimeter increments, indicating that the coins are approximately 2 to 3 centimeters in diameter.
