This is an image of an ancient coin or medallion depicting two pillars partially submerged in stylized waves. The design is symmetrical, with both pillars featuring intricate capitals. The bottom of the medallion shows flowing waves, creating a pattern. The piece contains inscriptions: on each side of the pillars are the words "PLUS" and "ULTRA," with a Latin phrase engraved along the upper edge, albeit partially obscured. The medallion appears metallic with a textured surface, suggesting age or patination.
