Following the rejection of the proposal to make British Guiana a section of Guyana, similar to Demerara and Essequibo

https://en.numista.com/forum/topic124926.html#p1042533

I propose the adjustment of Demerara and Essequibo so that it appears under Guyana as a section of equal status to British Guiana.

 

Rolling the dice again to see if we can get the hard six…

No, wrong way round. Make British Guiana visible again. The guidelines are wrong, so being consistent with them is also wrong.

Both British Guiana & Demarary & Essequibo should be listed separately from Guyana.

What's more, some of the British Guiana coins were actually struck for British Guiana and West Indies, so the argument that “British Guiana had the same borders as Guyana" doesn't apply anyway.

That’s a good point about the coinage.
