Unattributed (Greek?) coin.

I recently purchased this coin but, despite my efforts, (and the efforts of some other collectors), I have been unable to attribute it.
Can anyone help me please?

It is 18 mm and 4.5 gm.

There must have been an Irishman in Greece. Looks like a four leaf clover reverse.

 

A coin with a bust of Helios and a rose is likely going to be a Rhodian issue.

Something like the second one here:

Rhodes

Like this:


ISLANDS off CARIA. Rhodes. Circa 40-25 BC. Æ 18mm (3.49 gm). Radiate head of Helios right / RODIwN, open rose, seen from above; herm. SNG Helsinki 751; SNG Copenhagen 875

 

@Bing My thoughts, too!

@zumbly and @TIF Thank-you. I think you have it.
(When it arrives I will check the inscription.)
If I had searched 'Rose' (instead of 'clover') I may have been more successful.
Terrific. Thank-you, again. (My US$6 was well spent.)

 

Yeah, that's a heck of a deal at $6! It's very attractive

 

Ditto!
