This image shows two views of an ancient artifact, likely a coin or a seal made of metal, possibly lead, with weathered and corroded surfaces. The item appears circular in shape and features some inscribed symbols or text, which are partially obscured due to wear and age. The left view shows a pattern resembling a cross, while the right view exhibits text that seems to include Latin or similar script. The edges are irregular and eroded, indicating its historical nature and potential archaeological significance. A scale bar is visible on the far right for reference.

The image shows two views of a small, round artifact made of a corroded metal, possibly lead, with inscriptions on both sides. The object appears to be a historical seal or bulla, displaying significant degradation over time with rough and uneven textures. The first side visible in the left part of the image has cross-like indentations with some illegible text, while the other side to the right shows more pronounced letter forms over several lines. The inscriptions are difficult to read due to the state of the artifact, but they hint at a script that could belong to an ancient or medieval period. The background is a neutral, plain surface, and there is a small black and white scale visible at the right edge of the image, suggesting that the photo was taken in an archaeological or museum context for documentation purposes.

The image features two ancient, weathered clay seals with inscriptions. The seals are circular and have a rough, uneven texture, suggesting they have been exposed to the elements for an extended period. The inscriptions on the seals appear to be in an ancient language, possibly Greek or Latin, but are difficult to decipher due to their worn condition.

The seals are placed side by side on a plain white background, which helps to highlight their details. A small portion of a black and white bar is visible in the top-right corner of the image, but it does not provide any additional information about the seals.

Overall, the image suggests that the seals are artifacts from an archaeological excavation or collection, and may hold significant historical or cultural value. However, without further context or analysis, it is difficult to determine their exact origin, purpose, or significance.

The image shows two views of a weathered, circular object with raised lettering, likely a seal or coin. The object appears to be made of a dull greyish-brown material, possibly lead or another soft metal. The edges are uneven and show signs of wear and damage. The lettering is stacked in multiple lines and while somewhat obscured by the weathering, appears to be in Latin script. The object is set against a plain, light grey background. A black and white ruler is visible on the right side of the image, indicating the object's size. The overall impression is that of an ancient and worn artifact.

The image shows two sides of an ancient clay seal or bulla, which appears to be inscribed with text and symbols. The seals are circular and have a rough, uneven texture, typical of ancient clay artifacts.

On the left side of the image, the seal displays what appears to be an inscription in an ancient script, likely Hebrew or another Semitic language. The script is written in a linear fashion and includes a symbol that looks like a cross or an "X" shape.

On the right side of the image, the seal also features an inscription in the same ancient script. This side seems to have a more complex design, including what looks like a small figure or symbol above the text.

These types of seals were commonly used in ancient times for authentication, sealing documents, or marking ownership. The inscriptions often contained names, titles, or other identifying information. The presence of such seals can provide valuable insights into the administrative and cultural practices of the period from which they originate.
