Simple transformers (like an ignition coil) would have 4 leads (at least internally) ; 2 for the primary, 2 for the secondary. In a lot of transformers 1 lead of the primary is "common" with 1 lead on the secondary, which are both typically connected to ground, hence the modern 3 terminal coil. So, my current coil has 4 leads, a sparkplug type wire and a screw terminal going to the distributor, and a + and - on the primary side (screw terminal) which go to ground and the start switch, respectively.

At least that"s the way I understand it to be ;-)
