How many cards are in the World Deck at the start of a game?

Several experienced players give the same counts; no single ruling states the size at every point in play.

The full set is 54 denizens, nine per suit across six suits, plus five Visions: 59 cards. Denizens already dealt to sites and cards in the starting discard piles and hands come out of that count, so the deck is smaller once play starts. Each Chronicle moves six cards out to the Dispossessed and six in from the Archive, so the size varies between games.
