What you need to do is consult the two volumes of the Typenatlas by Franziska
Schmidt-Dick. These two volumes cover every
reverse legend and design, in all metals, from
Augustus to
Aemilian. (Though only regular coinage, not medallions.) They are in
German but easy to use. For example you can look up a
reverse design from the photo plates and then find the legends it was issued with and in which
denominations and in which names.
Volume one covers female figures, volume two male figures. Hopefully other volumes will cover non-human
reverse types and extend the period beyond
Aemilian (AD 253).
You could literally mine these two books for years of research if you want.
They should be available in any big university
library or can be bought. Not
cheap but you can buy both for a tenth the cost of an
aurei.......
