Hello everyone,

I am looking to add a new mint to the Numista coin catalogue. It was called ‘Stumpf und Sohn’ and it's was a jeweller who used to make a lot of gold, silver and amber jewellery, but they also minted coins for the city of Danzig in 1920. The main shop was likely on the ‘Langgasse 29-30’, today's ‘Ulica Długa’. The location of the street itself is N54°20'51 (Lat. 54.34938) and E18°38'58" (Lon. 18.649446) (I am not sure about the exact address in the modern city)

Here are some of the coins they minted:

N#24737 (together with the Gewehrfabrik)

N#141786

N#141788

(and more)

Here's a Polish notgeld catalogue that mentions the manufacturer:

The German wikipedia page about the jeweller:

Thanks, I just added the mint. Danzig would be your speciality it seems (not only from the name :) )
