The image shows two ancient Chinese coins, likely from the Song Dynasty (960-1279 AD), with a square hole in the center. The coins are made of bronze and have a green patina, indicating age and exposure to the elements. The coins are displayed against a black background, with a ruler on the right side showing measurements in centimeters.
