<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gil-galad, post: 2044411, member: 44154&quot;]For these subjects that you want to know, some studying on your part is necessary. Ancient coins are very fun but it takes some amount of effort to learn and deduce many forms of information. There are also debates on various subjects because we really don&#039;t know a lot of things about ancient coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as the Roman Empire is concerned, you may figure some estimated mintage figures for each emperor to some extent.</p><p><br /></p><p>For each emperor that&#039;s on a coin, there are many reverse types for all the major metal types, gold, silver, bronze. There are other metals used but they are uncommon or even rare such as lead, electrum, even nickle.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a site, Tantalus coin gallery. <a href="http://www.tantaluscoins.com/browse.php" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.tantaluscoins.com/browse.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.tantaluscoins.com/browse.php</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The coins that are registered here is a fraction of what&#039;s out there, what people own and the coins that are waiting to be found but it&#039;s possible that the ratio could be close. For example, Constantine I has more coins than anyone and more coin types and designs. Constantine I has 4780 registered coins out of a total of 69,279 registered coins. Again, this is only a fraction out of millions and millions, maybe billions of minted coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
