The image shows both sides of an ancient Jewish coin known as a Shekel or a Half Shekel, typically used during the period of the Jewish War against Rome (66-70 AD). The coin appears to be made of silver and features distinct engravings: - **Obverse (left side)**: There is a depiction of a ceremonial chalice with pearls around the rim. It is flanked by paleo-Hebrew script that likely reads "Shekel of Israel" or something similar. Surrounding the edge of the coin are small dotted patterns. - **Reverse (right side)**: This side features a stem with three pomegranates, one of the Seven Species mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. Surrounding this design is more paleo-Hebrew script, which could refer to the year of minting, such as "Year 1" or a further year count during the revolt. The image also includes a scale for measurement on the right side, with increments marked in centimeters and millimeters to highlight the coin's size.

The image displays two sides of an ancient coin placed side by side against a neutral gray background. The coin is oval in shape, and both its faces show signs of wear and age. On the left, the face of the coin displays a series of raised characters surrounding a central design, which appears to be a chalice or cup with rays emanating from it, suggesting some form of stylized representation. The characters surrounding the central image are unclear but seem to be of a script that may not be immediately recognizable to the modern eye, potentially suggesting an ancient or obsolete writing system. The right-hand side of the coin shows a different pattern with a central column or pillar-like structure, possibly a stylized tree or similar symbol. On either side of this central feature, there are two indistinct objects or characters which might be variants of the script seen on the opposite side or some form of symbolic depiction. Around the edge of both sides of the coin, there appears to be a dotted border which may serve as a decorative element or a framing device for the central motifs. The material of the coin looks to be a form of metal with a light-colored, possibly silver, patina, which could suggest that it is made from a precious metal, though it could also be a less valuable metal that has been treated or aged in a way that gives it a similar appearance. The ruler with measurements placed to the right of the coin suggests that the coin measures roughly 2 centimeters in its longest dimension, giving a sense of scale and indicating that the coin is relatively small, as is typical for ancient coinage.

This image shows both sides of what appears to be an ancient silver coin. On one side (left), there is a design featuring what looks like a chalice or goblet. The other side (right) displays a cross or similar religious symbol. The coin appears to be well-preserved though it shows signs of age, with a silvery-gray patina. The edges have text or inscriptions around the circumference, though they're not clearly legible in this image. There's a measurement scale visible on the right side of the photograph, suggesting this is likely a professional numismatic (coin collecting/studying) photograph. The coin appears to be medieval in origin, possibly European, given its imagery and style.

The image presents a coin with two sides, each featuring distinct inscriptions and symbols. The left side of the coin displays an image of a chalice or goblet, accompanied by the inscription "YHWH" above it. The right side of the coin features a stylized image of a plant or tree, with the inscription "YHWH" at the top and "MLK" at the bottom. The coin is set against a gray background, with a ruler on the right side that measures 2 cm in length. The ruler is divided into smaller increments, allowing for precise measurement. The overall appearance of the coin suggests that it may be an ancient artifact, possibly from the Middle East or Mediterranean region. The use of the Hebrew name for God, "YHWH," and the presence of other Hebrew inscriptions on the coin support this interpretation.
