This image shows two sides of an ancient coin or seal. The object appears circular and is made of metal, with a weathered and corroded surface suggesting significant age.

On the left, there is a visible cross design in the center with faint letters surrounding it. Some elements seem to include combinations of letters or symbols that could have been meaningful in the context in which this seal or coin was made.

On the right, there are rows of inscriptions in a script, possibly Greek or other ancient writing, though the exact text is difficult to decipher due to the wear on the surface. The script appears to be embossed and might convey information such as context, origin, or purpose.

Overall, this image likely depicts a historical artifact, possibly a Byzantine lead seal, used for administrative or personal identification purposes dating back to antiquity.
