Hello,

 

This coin from United States Virgin Islands appear to have the wrong flag.

The good one is this one:

 

Always look on the bright side of life!

It seems like Denmark wants it back. 😆

Thank you, it's fixed.

It's still unexpectedly shown in exonumia catalogue (perhaps because catalogue has not been reloaded?). I think Danish Virgin Islands should be a sub-issuer of US Virgin Islands.

https://en.numista.com/catalogue/antilles_danoises-exonumia-1.html

I can see the correct flag, depending on the period.

 

Exonumia with the U.S. Virgin Islands flag
Exonumia with the Danish West Indies flag

If you see something different, you may need to hard-refresh the page or wait up to 7 days.

It's still the Danish flag in the coin catalogue, but I guess that's alright since it's only coins from the Danish West Indies there. It is a little awkward though, that the headline for the Danish West Indies is United States Virgin Islands. And that Danish West Indies is not even searchable is beyond me. I also don't understand why whh DWI is not listed ubder Denmark.

 

 

If we are aiming to be the leading coin and banknote catalogue online, things like this is unacceptable!

Thank you for the kind and motivating words. I will review this.

I know I might sound harsh, but I think you get me by now. 😇

Fixing these link issues is a bug hunt. I think part of the solution to these issues which appear after renaming and moving things might be more cross-referencing - in this case perhaps a link to labelled ‘Danish West Indies - US Virgin Islands’ in the Denmark listing would be appropriate, both for coins and banknotes.
