Sorry Charles, don't know what you mean - how many different coin designs there are or how many in total were minted? ??? I have no idea either way, but if you want me to ID a Trajan coin please post it in this section.

There are plenty of books around that specialise in idendifying coins to the full. One that springs to mind is Richard Reece's "Roman Coins", even that one does not give them all because there are always new 'varieties' coming up all the time, especially in hoards. My question was really meant to ask how many types were minted rather than the quantity. I fear is that I did not ask clearly enough. By the way Peter, thanks for the offer of identifying coins for us.
