On the left side, the coin features a cross design with details such as horizontal and vertical bars and stepped elements beneath it, resembling a pedestal. Surrounding the cross, an inscription in Latin or Greek-like characters encircles the design along the edge.

The image shows two sides of an ancient coin, likely of Byzantine origin, given the style and inscriptions.

Obverse (Left Side):

  • The coin features a cross on steps, which is a common symbol in Byzantine coinage, representing Christianity.
  • The inscription around the cross is in Greek and reads "IHS RHS," which is an abbreviation for "Jesus Christ." The letters are stylized and arranged around the cross.

Reverse (Right Side):

  • The reverse side contains a Greek inscription that reads: "ΘEO FILOSSINI XAHLECES BASILISRO MMION."
  • The inscription translates to "God, friend of man, Charles, Basil, Rome" indicating the coin may have been issued by a ruler named Charles, possibly Charlemagne or one of his successors, who had connections to the Byzantine Empire.

The coin appears to be made of bronze or a similar metal, and it has a worn, aged appearance, indicating it has been in circulation or buried for a long period. The presence of a scale on the right side of the image suggests it is being measured, likely for archaeological or numismatic study.
