Well, I'm sure you can think of some of them, like swords and daggers and drinking glasses and bottles of poison and crowns. There are also a number of notes and letters. Occasionally there are interesting props required like a couple of human skulls, or a donkey's head, or a whetstone, or an overdone roast beef.
The props are often implied by the stage directions or even the dialogue. Shakespeare did not compile a proplist for the plays; he expected the director to do that. So it is difficult to be precise about how many of them may be needed.
