Hi,
I'm a brazilian numismatist and over here there are some catalogs that list all the dies used. They are mainly about silver coins (1695-1834) and recently I was working on the first about copper coins. There are also some very rare ones about the 2nd imperial monetary system silver coins, some gold coins and 960 Counterstamps(though there's a very recent and cheaper one).

Though I don't have a lot of contact with foreign literature, I don't see any hint about similar types of catalogs. Am I missing something? Has your country's numismatic literature something alike it? I would like to hear what you have to say about it.

Here's a brief explanation of the layout that most of these catalogs share:

Some of the cheap ones:

Giovanni,
There are similar catalogs in many countries.
In Britain, some of the best known are:
English Silver Coinage
English Copper, Tin and Bronze Coins in the British Museum, 1558-1958 by C W Peck
Bronze Coinage of Great Britain by M. J. Freeman
but these were all created from studying the coins rather than the dies used to strike them.

I never knew about those and since I don't collect such items, probably never will buy one. I just collect coins.
