This image shows two views of a Byzantine-style gold coin against a black background, with a scale in centimeters visible on the right side. The coin features intricate engravings:

1. Left Side (Obverse): The design shows a religious or regal figure standing, dressed in detailed robes. Surrounding the figure is a circular border, and elements hinting at Byzantine iconography can be seen.

2. Right Side (Reverse): The coin depicts two figures, likely a Byzantine emperor alongside a religious figure (possibly a saint or Jesus), holding a cross. The inscriptions and details of their attire reflect the ornamental and symbolic style typical of Byzantine art.
