The image shows a close-up of a worn ancient Roman coin with two sides:

  1. Obverse (left side): It features the profile of a Roman figure, likely an emperor, facing to the right. The person's hair and facial features are visible, though worn. Surrounding the profile are faint inscriptions, likely detailing the emperor's name and titles.

  2. Reverse (right side): It depicts a standing figure, possibly holding an object in one hand and with a dynamic posture. The details of the figure are eroded due to age and wear. Faint inscriptions are visible around the outer edge, possibly describing the coin's mint or a commemorative theme.

The background is solid black, and a scale in centimeters is visible on the right, indicating the coin's small size. The material appears to be bronze or a similar metal, with a dark, corroded patina from age.

The image displays a pair of ancient Roman coins against a black background. The coin on the left shows the obverse side with a profile portrait of an emperor, likely Antoninus Pius. He is depicted wearing a laurel wreath and facing right. There is an inscription around the edge, which is typical for Roman coins, but it is worn and difficult to decipher clearly.

The coin on the right shows the reverse side, featuring a figure standing to the left, possibly holding objects such as a staff or scepter. This figure is likely a deity or symbol of authority, commonly found on Roman coinage. An inscription is also present around the edge, though it is again worn and challenging to read in its entirety.

Both coins exhibit signs of age, with a dark and corroded patina that covers much of their original detail, typical of ancient coins that have been buried or worn through time.
