ISLANDS OFF CARIA, Rhodos. Rhodes. Circa 408/7-390 BC. Hemidrachm (Silver, 12 mm, 1.85 g, 1 h). Head of Helios facing, turned slightly to the right. Rev. Ρ - Ο Rose, flanked by a bud to left and a leaf to right; all within an incuse square. Ashton Coinage, 17. Toned, and with a rather emotive head of Helios. About extremely fine.
From the "Collection sans Pareille" of Ancient Greek Fractions.

The obverse die used for this coin is the same as that used for the preceeding lot. This makes it quite clear that Ashton 17 includes two variant reverse types.
