This image shows both sides of an ancient coin. The coin has a worn, metallic appearance and seems to be made of silver or a similar alloy.

Left side: The obverse features an embossed design showing two standing figures wearing ornate robes, placed side by side. Between them, there is a vertical line with a cross or scepter-like object. Surrounding the figures is a faint circular border with barely visible details. The coin’s surface is aged and shows some wear and irregular edges.

Right side: The reverse is inscribed with several rows of text in a blocky script that appears to be Greek or a related script. The characters are roughly etched, and the lines are slightly uneven, possibly due to the casting technique or the passage of time. Above the text is a small symbol, possibly a cross. The border of this side has a dotted appearance, but this detail is partially eroded.

The addition of a cm scale along the right-hand side gives an indication of the coin's size, but the exact measurement isn't specified.
