| Beschrijving voorzijde | Radiate head of Helios facing three-quarters right, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with characteristic radiating solar crown of straight rays emanating from the hair. The youthful, idealized effigy displays carefully detailed wavy locks framing the face, with the neck shown in right profile. The modeling is naturalistic with strong relief, typical of the high-quality Rhodian plintophoric series. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Stemmed rose in full bloom with a bud to the right, the civic emblem of Rhodes, centrally positioned within a shallow incuse square. The magistrate's name ΑΡΤΕΜΩΝ appears above the rose, while the ethnic abbreviation Ρ-Ο flanks the stem. A shield device appears in the lower left field, serving as a secondary symbol; the entire design is contained within the characteristic shallow incuse square of the plintophoric coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Rhodian drachms of this period were struck under the island's system of rotating magistrates, with the name on each issue identifying the presiding official rather than a mint master in any permanent sense. Artemon held this rotating authority sometime within the mid-to-late second century, a period when Rhodes was navigating an increasingly uncomfortable relationship with Rome following the punitive trade restrictions imposed after the Third Macedonian War in 167 BC — sanctions that gutted Rhodian commerce and accelerated a slow decline in the city-state's naval and economic power.
