<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CheetahCats, post: 886886, member: 23874&quot;]There are some rough numbers and estimations.&nbsp; Off the top of my head, for instance, Wood&#039;s patent granted him authorization to produce a certain gross tonnage of weight for his Rosa Americanas.&nbsp; Using planchets to pounds, one could derive the authorized amount of coinage.&nbsp; That said, however, there is speculation of course, as to what actual amounts were produced.</p><p><br /></p><p>Other examples exist too.&nbsp; Numbers that I have seen are in various books such as Breen&#039;s, Martin&#039;s, and Whitman&#039;s, among others.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do you have either of those books in your library?&nbsp; If not, and you&#039;re pursuing Colonials (and Early American/Pre-Federals for that matter), I strongly recommend acquiring them as well as any others you can get your hands on.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
