It depends upon what military you are talking about and what type of tank the battalion utilizes or is it diverse? For a light tank battalion the numbers will be greater than a Main Battle Tank battalion.
It was dependent on many factors, but probably somewhere between 100 and 200. As the war dragged on and turned against Germany, panzer divisions were seldom up to their intended number of tanks.

The 39th Battalion was a regiment in the Australian Army. The group fought in both World Wars and by the time it was disbanded had, had 1666 men serve in it. There were only 32 men to survive the 39th Battalion, seven officers and 25 others.
Michael Wittmann destroyed 138 tanks with his almighty Tiger I tank during the course of World War 2.
It varied greatly but in general a Panzer battalion would have 90-100 tanks
896 Panzer III Tanks were used during the Battle of France in 1940.
During the Battle of Stalingrad, 1,100 tanks were in the German 4th Panzer Army.
150
Both USMC and US Army tank battalion in Vietnam had 57 to 58 Patton tanks per battalion. 17 Pattons per company (5 per platoon, 2 in headquarters platoon).
During the Battle of Berlin, the Germans had 1,519 AFV and about 1,250 of these were actual tanks. out of the 1,250 tanks, 750 of them were the German Panzer IV.
In a average Panzer Korps, there is around 250 Tanks, some did have at-least 500 in one go. This was because certain Panzer Korps were going for big targets and need a lot of fire power if it was needed to break through heavy Allied Defences and seig the area.
A Panzer Army is a Armored tanks with Infantry division in the German Military which included the Wehrmacht and branches of the SS. During the war, an Average Panzer Army would have 4-6 individual Panzer Divisions along with 6-14 Infantry and Cavalry Divisions and each Panzer Division at first contained around 400 Tanks at a time, so A Panzer Army would have around 2,000 Tanks a time. This decreased gradually during the war as soon as Germany launched Operation Barbarossa then Case Blue, which meant splitting the whole German Army on western Front into 3 sections then later on, split them into 2 smaller groups.

I'm thinking the straight answer is all of them. After the Battle of the Bulge there is no example of concerted Panzer use by the Germans. The number of Tigers built is about 1300, I suppose other marques will exceed this....
