Hello experts!

 

Currently Portuguese Malacca coins are together with Portuguese India coins, that makes not much sense, Malacca is and were in Malaysia, we need Portuguese Malacca issuer:

 

Portuguese control of Malacca, a city on the Malay Peninsula, spanned the 130 year period (1511–1641) when it was a possession of the Portuguese East Indies. It was conquered from the Malacca Sultanate as part of Portuguese attempts to gain control of trade in the region. Although multiple attempts to conquer it were repulsed, the city was eventually lost to an alliance of Dutch and regional forces, thus entering a period of Dutch rule.

In the wiki page there are even the coins in the bottom of the page:

In 1511 CE, a Portuguese fleet set sail from Goa, India to capture the Sultanate of Malacca. After seizing the city, the Hindu, Chinese and Burmese inhabitants were spared but the Muslim inhabitants were massacred or sold into slavery. The territory proved not to be the commercial success Portugal had hoped for, with continued hostility from local rulers, pirates and even the Ming emperor of China. The city remained under Portuguese control until 1641 CE when it was captured by the Dutch.

Thank you.  We are looking at how to do this.

The issuer has been set up as Malaysia > Portuguese Malacca, ruling authorities, currency, denominations, etc. all in place, and almost all the coins in your list have been moved.  

 

#341537 stays in Portuguese India (I think there was an error in the title previously as it seems to be an issue for Goa, not Malacca)

#50142 and #108298 pertain to the Dutch period, and also should not be transferred (though I am not sure they are in correct issuer now).
