Helios (Munchen = Munich, Germany) The firm opened in 2008. Coins are very well-photographed in full color, with some enlargements, illustrated throughout. Descriptions are in German. Coins tend to be moderate value with numerous high-value exceptions. There are interesting collections offered, not just nice coins. Helios 1 included the "Frank L. Kovacs collection of Roman coins referencing games and sports" 1 (2008, April 17-18) 671 ancients among 1037. 13 Celtic, 164 G, The Frank L. Kovacs collection of Roman coins referencing games and sports (199, including 33 RR and 167 RI), 21 RR, 231 RI, 33 Byz. Frank L. Kovacs collection of Roman coins referencing games and sports (199) I'm sure there are many other types that reference games and sports, but Frank has been a dealer for many years and was able to put together a fine collection. If you'd like to see what can be done with that topic, this auction catalog is a good reference. PR included.
