This image shows an ancient coin, displaying two sides:

  1. Obverse (Left): The coin depicts a figure, possibly a man or a deity, riding a dolphin, a motif often associated with ancient Greek or Mediterranean cultures. Below the dolphin, there is a small seashell. The design indicates maritime connections and cultural symbolism.

  2. Reverse (Right): The back of the coin features a symmetrical design consisting of four sections divided by cross-like lines. This is likely a basic geometric pattern commonly found in older Greek or regional coinage.

The coin is silver-colored and preserved in remarkable detail, with the black background and scale marking emphasizing its small size.
