Authentic Greek Coin 4th Cent. B.C. 18 Kt Gold Ring Depicting God Helios/Apollo
About the Item
In this 18 Kt gold ring there is mounted an authentic silver coin ( 4th century B.C.) depicting Helios; in the other side of the coin there is a Rose.
Helios (identified with Apollo) was adopted as the patron diety of Rhodes upon the city's foundation in 407 BC, and became the nearly universal obverse type of Rhodian coinage over the following four centuries. The rose was a pun on the city's name ~Rose, Rhodon in Greek,a common practice in Greek coinage.
The Rhodians built the famous statue of Helios known as Colossus of Rhodes. The Colossus,one of the Ancient Wonders of the World was toppled in a massive earthquake in 226 BC, &
its remains lay on the ground for over 800 years (Strabo 14.2.5) before being sold as scrap following the Arab Conquest in 654.
