On the obverse of 2023 5 oz Proof Goddesses Series Eos Coins a portrait of King Charles III is shown. Here, the King faces to the left in a simple yet elegant portrait. Inscriptions of his official title, the year of issue, and the denomination are also shown along the edges.
The reverse of 2023 5 oz Proof St. Helena Silver Goddesses Series Coin features Eos. Here, we see the goddess of dawn ascending in her chariot drawn by three horses. This design is credited to Joel Iskowitz, who also created the artwork for the first release in this series.
In Greek mythology, there are several famous stories involving Eos, the goddess of the dawn. Eos was known to have many romantic interests, which was a result of a curse of endless desire imposed on her by a vengeful Aphrodite. One of her lovers, the handsome prince Tithonos, was famously granted immortality without eternal youth. So, when he became permanently shriveled and old, Eos took pity and turned him into a cicada.
