This image shows both sides of an ancient coin, likely made of bronze. The left side (obverse) features the profile of a male figure, likely a Roman emperor or prominent leader, facing to the left. Surrounding the figure is an inscription in Latin, though parts are worn and challenging to read due to age and corrosion.

The right side (reverse) displays the letters "SC" prominently in the center, which often stands for Senatus Consulto ("by decree of the Senate") in Roman coinage. Surrounding this are additional worn Latin inscriptions, which are difficult to distinguish because of the coin's worn condition. The surface shows significant signs of aging, with corrosion, patina, and irregularities.

The scale marks on the right indicate the approximate size of the coin, measured in centimeters. The black background contrasts with the coin, highlighting its historical features.

The image shows both sides of an ancient Roman coin placed side-by-side. The coin appears to be made of bronze and has significant wear and corrosion, indicating its age.

On the left side (obverse), there is a profile portrait of a man facing right. Surrounding the portrait, there are inscriptions in Latin, but due to wear, they are not entirely legible. The visible letters suggest it may be identifying the person depicted, possibly an emperor.

On the right side (reverse), there is a prominent "SC" in the center, which stands for "Senatus Consulto," indicating the coin was minted with the approval of the Roman Senate. Surrounding this central feature is more Latin text, which is also worn and difficult to fully decipher.

The background is black, emphasizing the coin, and there is a scale in centimeters on the right side to provide a reference for size.

The image shows two ancient bronze coins. The coins appear to be in poor condition, with a greenish-brown patina covering the surface. The obverse (front) of the coins features what appears to be a portrait or bust of a person, though the details are not clearly visible due to the weathered state of the coins. The reverse (back) of the coins displays some kind of symbol or design, but again, the details are not easily discernible. These coins seem to be from an ancient civilization, though I cannot identify the specific culture or time period based on the limited information provided in the image.
