This image shows a worn and aged coin with two sides visible. On the left side of the image, one face of the coin is displayed, depicting a faint profile of a figure, likely a ruler or historical figure, with surrounding worn text. On the right side, the opposite face of the coin features a large "M" symbol in the center, with additional text or symbols below it, including "CON." The coin appears to be made of bronze or a similar metal, with signs of corrosion and patina, indicative of its age or prolonged exposure to elements. The background is solid black, and there is a scale in centimeters shown on the right side for reference.

The image shows two sides of an ancient coin against a black background with a scale on the right edge. The coin appears to be made of a copper alloy and shows signs of oxidation and wear.

The left side of the coin, which is the obverse, features a worn and somewhat indistinct profile bust of a figure facing right. Surrounding the bust, there is an inscription, but it is not clearly legible due to wear.

The right side of the coin, which is the reverse, displays a large letter "M" in the center. Below the "M" is a line, and beneath that line is the inscription "CON," suggesting Constantinople as the mint. The oxidized green and brown surface obscures some of the finer details.

This type of coin is characteristic of Byzantine copper coinage, specifically the large denomination known as the "follis" from the early Byzantine period. The "M" denotes a value of 40 nummi.

Google Gemini

Created by gemini-2.0-flash on 2025-06-13

The image shows two sides of an old, tarnished coin against a black background, with a centimeter scale on the right edge of the frame.

The coin is a dull bronze or copper color with some green corrosion or patina. It appears to be slightly worn and not perfectly round. One side of the coin features what seems to be a profile portrait of a person, possibly a ruler or historical figure, although the details are somewhat obscured by wear and tarnish. There also appears to be some lettering in the upper left section of the coin, next to the portrait.

The other side of the coin displays what looks like an inscription in a formal or stylized script, including the word "CON" at the bottom. Above it, there's another set of characters that may be abbreviated, and a symbol on top of the writing.

The coin's age and material suggest it is likely an ancient coin, possibly Roman or from a similar era. The scale bar indicates its size and serves as a reference for estimating its dimensions.

  • Surface: The coin has a similar aged appearance with greenish-brown patina and uneven texture.
  • Design: The coin has a prominent capital letter "M", and the words "CON".

Mistral Pixtral

The image shows two sides of an ancient coin. Here is a detailed summary of each side:

  1. Left Side (Obverse):

    • The coin appears to be made of a metal with a patina, suggesting it is quite old.
    • The design on this side is somewhat worn but features a profile of a person facing to the right.
    • There are some inscriptions around the profile, though they are not entirely clear due to wear and corrosion.
  2. Right Side (Reverse):

    • This side of the coin also shows significant wear and corrosion.
    • The central design appears to include an architectural structure, possibly a temple or altar, with a triangular pediment on top.
    • There are inscriptions below the structure, partially legible. The visible letters include "CON," which could be part of a larger word or phrase.

The coin's condition indicates it has been in circulation or buried for a long time, leading to the wear and corrosion visible on both sides. The presence of a scale in the image suggests it is being examined for archaeological or numismatic purposes.

Qwen

The image shows two ancient coins placed side by side against a black background. The coins appear to be made of metal and have a tarnished, greenish patina, indicating they are likely of historical significance and have been exposed to the elements for a considerable time.

The coin on the left has an inscription that seems to be in Latin, with the letters "ANALIS" visible on the left side. The coin on the right features a symbol that resembles a house or building with a vertical line above it, and below it, the letters "CON" are visible.

A ruler in centimeters is positioned vertically on the right side of the image, providing a sense of scale for the coins. The coins appear to be of similar size, with the ruler indicating they are slightly smaller than an inch in diameter.
