Æ25 - Trajan ΑΙΤΗ ΓΑ ΠΛ ΠΩΛΛΙΩΝΟϹ ϹΤ Β ΑΠΠΙΑΝΩΝ

Appia was a minor Phrygian settlement whose civic coinage under Trajan typically names a local magistrate — here the strategos Pollion, son of Appianus, holding his second term. These magistrate-named bronzes were not state currency in any imperial sense; they circulated hyper-locally, often within a single city's market economy, and the issuing authority derived prestige from the association with a reigning emperor rather than any formal imperial sanction.

The Conventus of Synnada grouped several such small Phrygian communities for Roman administrative purposes, and Appia's output was modest even by regional standards.
