We currently have the East India Company issues for the Bengal and Bombay Presidencies split between “British India” (within currencies specific to the Presidencies) and either “Bengal Presidency” or “Bombay Presidency” as separate issuers. Can we please consolidate all coins in “British India” with the currency “Bengal - Rupee (1765-1834)” into the issuer “Bengal Presidency” and all coins in “British India” with the currency “Bombay - Rupee (1672-1834)” into the issuer “Bombay Presidency”? I'm requesting it here as I am hoping an admin can do it directly in the database rather than have to go through each coin in turn. None of these issuers have referees at the moment, so this seems the more efficient method.

We cannot edit coins in DB, please do the change requests and we'll be able to validate :-)
