I have not run across any ideal cut trillion solitares.  Is this because there is no such thing?

Does anyone have some numbers that they know of or would recommend, especially crown and pavillion?

Use the AGS numbers (under knolwedge above) - but do not get to carried away with them.
Ask dealers to eyeball the stones and then get us some ideal-scope images.

You are looking for small well dispersed leakage interspeersed with larger well spread out red spots of light return.

Trillions are mostly cut from rough that would not yield the maximimum in light return at any sort of economical price.  Since the rough is so costly, a great looking stone is what is looked for, not a super one.  It is a compromise from the beginning due to the rough and the shape of the final product.  You will find most rilliants or trillions are too thin to be the most brilliant possible because length and width are more over riding concerns.

At some future time, possibly there will be a demand for maximum light return tillions, but this is not the present case.
