Hello,

 

please add the mint

 

Security Printing Works Factory, Wazi, Myanmar

 

The following coins have been minted there for example.

N#1650

Possibly even many more but those are the ones I know of.

When looking for that I found several mentions of 1972 being the creation of the company after a move of some production facility in Wazi
