The image shows a collection of 15 ancient coins, arranged in a 3x5 grid. The coins are from Knossos, as indicated by the caption at the bottom, and are part of the British Museum collection. The coins are made of metal, likely silver or bronze, and have a worn, aged appearance. Each coin features a different design. Some coins depict a portrait of a person, possibly a ruler or deity, with detailed hair and facial features. Others feature intricate geometric patterns, including a labyrinth or maze-like design and a spiral. The designs are raised on the surface of the coins, creating a relief effect. The coins are circular and have a slightly rough texture, with some signs of wear and tear. The background is a dark, neutral color, which helps to highlight the coins and their designs. The image is a historical artifact, likely from a book or publication about ancient coins or archaeology.
