The image displays two sides of an ancient coin. The coin on the left side has a Boeotian Shield design on its obverse. The shield is depicted as a circle with a horizontal line through the middle and a loop on either side. The coin on the right side has a Volute Krater design on its reverse. The krater is a type of ancient Greek vase and is depicted here with a wide body and two handles on either side. The krater has a base and three lines around the top. Greek letters are stamped on the right side. The coins are made of a dark metallic material and have a weathered appearance with visible signs of wear. The background of the image is light blue.
