Some recent forum requests https://en.numista.com/forum/topic131675.html,  https://en.numista.com/forum/topic131764.html  reminded me that we are missing some mints in Silesia.  I propose the list below, realizing that some of them will never have more than a couple of coins in the catalog, but some of them already have many (Głogów, Legnica, Oleśnica for example).  And probably I have missed some.  I don't have information on the date ranges these mints were open.

 

Unless otherwise noted, they are all places in modern Poland, and I am listing their Polish names first only because these are the names I am used to (I am sure they will get added in whichever way conforms to our guidelines):

Thank you!

I have started submitting modifications, and realize I was missing one important mint and at least one smaller one:  

 

1. Reichenstein (modern day Zloty Stok, Poland).  The German name is used on some of the coinage, so I recommend we use this version https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z%C5%82oty_Stok. ;

 

Some of the coins we have that were struck there:

N#91599

N#120974

N#91698

 

2. Kluczbork (German - Kreuzburg).  On acsearch, Kluczbork gives more hits than Kruzburg  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kluczbork#Twin_towns_%E2%80%93_sister_cities ;

In this case, only a few coins.  

N#122312

N#120949

 

Sorry for missing these the first time.

Added too!
