Hi all,

 

I think the piastre coins from Laos (see https://en.numista.com/catalogue/laos-1.html#c_laos8388) should be moved to French Indochina issuing entity. These are from 1952, French Indochina lasted until 1954. Kingdom of Laos was established on 1947 still within Indochina as a french protectorate, and independence of Laos was in 1953.

 

Besides this… coins are in french.

 

Thank you

Hi

 

today I realize I'm probably wrong to move the coins, but it would be nice to separate these coins within “Laos” into a different sub-entity “Kingdom of Laos”. The kingdom was no longer part of French Indochina itself, thus my mistake (constitution promulgated in 1947), but full independence was not granted until 1953, so in my opinion it should not be considered as Laos neither.
