The coin pendant of the 'Helios Necklace' was recreated from a hemidrachm, a small silver coin from Rhodes from 250-229 BC. The obverse shows the radiant head of Helios, the reverse a hibiscus flower. Helios was of great importance in antiquity as the god and personification of the sun. He was considered an omniscient witness and played an important role in mythology.
