This image showcases two sides of a lead seal. The left side features an embossed depiction of a robed figure, possibly religious or imperial, standing in profile and holding an object in their hand; the figure is enclosed within a circular border. The right side displays inscriptions in multiple lines of text, which appear to include letters and symbols, likely of historical or administrative significance. The seal shows wear and erosion indicative of age, and there are damages along the edges on both sides.

The image depicts a Byzantine lead seal, which is divided into two parts — the obverse (left) and the reverse (right).

The obverse (left side) features a depiction of a figure, possibly a saint or religious figure, who is standing and holding a cross in their right hand. The figure is dressed in a robe with vertical lines indicating folds or texture. To the right of the figure are some inscriptions or symbols, which may be in Greek, but they are quite worn and not clearly legible.

The reverse (right side) of the seal has an inscription arranged in multiple lines. The inscription appears to be in Greek, displaying several rows of text. The text is slightly worn, making it difficult to read in its entirety. The seal is circular and appears to be aged, with some surface corrosion and chipping along the edges, typical of artifacts from the Byzantine period. The lead material of the seal gives it a grayish, weathered appearance.

The image shows two sides of an ancient artifact, likely a seal or a coin.

Left Side:

  • The left side features an engraved image of a figure, possibly a saint or a religious icon. The figure appears to be holding an object and is depicted with a halo, which is a common symbol in Christian iconography to denote sanctity.
