Info on the image: one side of an ancient coin: CARIA, Islands off Rhodes. Circa 295-280 BC. AR Didrachm. Radiate head of Helios. The profile head of Helios is quite different from the usual facing heads and can safely be taken as a representation of the head of the famous Colossus, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, which was under construction at the time this coin was struck.
