Here's a description of the image:

Overall Impression:

The image shows two weathered, possibly ancient, metal artifacts, possibly coins or tokens, set against a stark black background. A centimeter scale is visible on the right side.

Detailed Description:

  • Artifacts: The objects have a roughly circular shape, though irregular and with worn edges. They appear to be made of a bronze or copper alloy, showing signs of oxidation and corrosion. Patches of green (verdigris, a copper corrosion product) are visible on their surfaces. Both objects have raised or incised designs.
  • Object 1 (left): The artifact on the left seems to have more distinct markings. A portion of the design is legible. The surface is more eroded, with areas of orange-brown and green corrosion.
  • Object 2 (right): The artifact on the right has less distinct markings, and it seems to be slightly less eroded than its counterpart.
  • Background: The background is a solid black, which highlights the artifacts and their details.
  • Scale: A white centimeter scale is on the right side of the image, providing a sense of size. The objects appear to be approximately 1.5-2 cm in diameter.

Possible Interpretations:

Based on the appearance, these artifacts likely are of archaeological interest. The presence of lettering or symbols (partially visible) suggests they were intended for communication or trade. Their worn condition implies age and possible burial or submersion.
