Æ19 - Marcus Aurelius ΑΠοΛΛΩΝΙΑΤΩΝ

Apollonia Salbace was a minor Lydian city whose civic coinage under the Antonines was modest in output and is poorly represented in major collections. RPC IV.2 #843 documents only a handful of specimens, making even routine examples genuinely scarce. The city's bronze issues of this period were struck under the authority of the koinon of Lydia, with civic pride — not imperial mandate — driving production.
