You can't _send_ images in a yahoo group; the mention of lead plates suggests possibly Mandaic.

As always with such questions, the _place of origin_ of the object is extremely important information.

Subject: Fwd: Needs help identifying script

Hi folks,

I am forwarding a message from the Unicode list that might be of interest to
this group. I'm not sure if the image attachments will come through; if they
don't I'll upload them to the files section on the group page.

Dear list,
Mike Sanders (below) asks for assistance in identifying the script on
the attached image. Please respond to him directly, as he is not on
the Unicode list.
