Hello! I have recently noticed some inconsistencies in the map locations for a number of issuers. Some are missing from the map entirely, others are in the wrong location or are missing important countries. I decided to combine everything into one post due to volume, as individual posts would clog the forum. All of these issuers already exist in the Numista catalog; this is not a request to have them added, but to fix the countries they light up in the “My collection” map.

 

Issuers missing from the map entirely:

- “Sultanate of Johor” was located in modern day Malaysia.

- “Sultanate of Pahang” was located in modern day Malaysia.

- “Sultanate of Kelantan” was located in modern day Malaysia.

- “Malacca Sultanate” was located in modern day Malaysia & Indonesia.

- “Sultanate of Trengganu” was located in modern day Malaysia.

- “State of Maluka” was located in modern day Indonesia.

- “Principality of Fiknan” was located in modern day Uzbekistan.

 

Issuers with inaccurate maps and need locations CHANGED:

- “Laranda (Lucaonia, Ancient Greece)” currently lights up Greece, but should light up Turkey instead.

 

- “Yaghlaqar Clan” currently lights up Russia, China, and Mongolia. While we dont know the EXACT location these coins were minted, it was either Kazakhstan or Kyrgyzstan, which need to both light up instead. 

 

Issuers with inaccurate maps and need locations ADDED:

- “Türgesh Khaganate” incorporated a major part of Uzbekistan, which it needs to light up alongside it's currently lit countries.

- “Northern Tokharistan (Northern Tokharistan, Tokharistan)" was part of Afghanistan, which it needs to light up alongside it's currently lit countries.

 

Issuers with inaccurate maps and need locations REMOVED:

- “Western Turk Shahis” currently lights up India, which should be removed as they did not majorly control it in history.

 

These are all of the inconsistencies I am currently aware of. Thank you!
