This image shows a pair of views of an ancient lead seal or token, possibly a Byzantine or medieval artifact, based on its appearance. The object appears to be circular and roughly textured, showing signs of age and corrosion.

• Left side: The surface is uneven and eroded, making it hard to make out any distinct features or inscriptions. It seems to be the less detailed side with a weathered appearance.
• Right side: There are visible markings or inscriptions, possibly in a stylized script or symbols, located within a circular border. Although the text is partially worn away, it appears to have been pressed or engraved into the seal, suggesting its use as an identifier or for official purposes.

The black-and-white measurement scale visible on the right edge of the image indicates the object is being documented for research or archaeological purposes.

The image shows two weathered lead seals, each roughly oval in shape. They appear to be ancient artifacts, possibly from a historical or archaeological context.

Key features:

• Material: Both seals are made of lead, which has oxidized and corroded over time, resulting in a rough, textured surface. The surface has a color range from grey to brown to black.
