The image depicts a close-up of a historical lead seal, which is cracked and split into two distinct halves. Both halves show significant wear and corrosion, indicating age and use. On the left side of the seal, there are embossed designs and inscriptions, but they are barely discernible due to erosion. The design appears to be somewhat symmetrical, but any specific patterns or figures are difficult to make out. On the right side, there are also inscriptions, likely in a block or Cyrillic script, that are arranged in roughly horizontal lines. The inscriptions are aged and weathered, making some of the characters difficult to read clearly. The seal likely has historical significance, possibly being used for official or document authentication purposes. The scale on the far right side of the image provides a reference for the size of the seal. The framing of the photograph implies a detailed examination, possibly for study or archival reasons.

This image shows both sides of what appears to be an ancient lead seal or bulla that has been broken or cracked down the middle. The seal is circular in shape and appears to be made of a grayish-brown metal with a weathered, textured surface typical of archaeological artifacts. On one side, there appears to be some kind of symbolic design or insignia, while the other side contains what looks like text or inscriptions. The object shows clear signs of age with its worn surface and patina. This type of seal would have historically been used to authenticate documents or mark official correspondence. The crack running through the middle suggests it was likely broken when the sealed document it was attached to was opened.
