Im not quite understanding, I think you mean:

Are Coins of Helena Sought After?

If so, then yes, slightly. Not very, not worth much of a premium unless they are in great shape. They arent particularly uncommon, but they dont show up in every lot.

Coins of Helena are fairly common and not very valuable unless they are in very high grade. They are sort after due to her being the mother of Constantine The Great and her ties to Christianity.

Heres something that might help. Thats a census of roman coins in mjor collections - it shows how many of each emperor they found in 200,000 coins. It shows relative rarity for each - its not correct, of course, for several reasons, but the gist is there. The way of telling rarity is anyone below 80th rarest is worth no special premium (with the exception of several emperors like Galba who are worth more due to historical context. Also, misplaced Emperors like Jovian). Above 100 you've got a rare person, above 130 you've got an actually rare person, once you're at 150 you've got unobtainable coins - very expensive.

You have two coins and a divided mind.
Keep the best one, and sell the other.

The wisdom of Solomon:- only in this case, there should not be too much blood-letting.
