| Aversbeschreibung | Facing head of Helios, rendered in high relief in the characteristic three-quarter frontal style of Koan coinage, with radiate nimbus framing the face and richly modelled curling locks of hair falling to either side. The deity displays a serene, idealised expression with finely delineated facial features. A beaded diadem or tainia is visible across the forehead. No legend appears on the obverse; the entire field is dominated by the bold, sculptural effigy. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Kos operated under Ptolemaic influence through much of this period, and the island's coinage reflects a mint navigating carefully between Aegean commercial networks and Egyptian political oversight. The Damoxenos issues are magistrate-signed coins — the name denoting the responsible official rather than an artist — a practice that makes die-linked sequences across the series traceable with unusual precision. Variants recorded in the Weber and Lockett collections differ primarily in the arrangement of subsidiary symbols, suggesting multiple working dies cut across a relatively short production window.
