| Obverse description | Radiate head of Helios facing three-quarters right, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with characteristic sun rays emanating from the hair in multiple directions. The youthful, idealized effigy displays curling locks behind the ear and a graceful profile with delicate facial features. The flan is irregularly shaped as typical of hammered Rhodian gold coinage of this period. The field to the right is plain and unadorned. No legend appears on the obverse. |

| Reverse description | A Rhodian rose rendered frontally with fully open petals occupies the central field, its stem issuing below with a lateral bud to the left, serving as the principal civic emblem of Rhodes. To the left of the rose stem, the letter P (rho) appears as a secondary control mark. The magistrate's name TIMOKPATHΣ is inscribed in Greek letters along the upper border within a dotted border circle. The design is enclosed within a prominent border of large dots, with the ethnic P-O flanking the lower portion of the rose. |
