Hi guys,

I agreed with myself some time ago, that I treat coins as different coins as soon as they have a different KM-Number. For most of the coins, this seems correct. For this coin, another catalogue got priority:

https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces962.html

The result is, that even if the two coins in my collection have different KM-Numbers, they are not shown as different types. How would you proceed with that one?

Thanks for your opinion!

Hmm, this is weird, mainly because ALL references listed see it as varieties. This should be probably splitted.

I react on two references:
1) F# 140, F# 140A
2) KM# 895-897

Shouldn't there just be one? This coins can't be two, or three, coins. That's just impossible.

​oooh, spooky! :wiz:
It shall be prohibited to make a reference like KM# 895-897. Such references can't be found via search by KM. It shall be 3 separate references on 895, 896, 897 in case of one page

It shall be also some kind of automatic notification to the owners of the coins when the pages with the coins they own merged or separated. E.g. if I collect by type by Krause and had only one coin from the 3 on this page, the other two will be shown as in the collection which I don't want

This should definitely be split up since it has different catalog numbers. If some people start doing this to entries it will undo the organization and make many things much harder to find.

I contacted the respective referee and made him aware of this threat... :)
Hm... I think the page is fine the way it is (well, in regards to the three varieties being on the same page).

While these varieties were given three different KM numbers, I cannot imagine why. They just seem like varieties to me--not different types. And of course, Numista is not obligated to follow Krause. Multiple KM numbers can definitely be on the same page if Krause, say, made an error.
Hi,

It's preferable to use French catalogue for French coins,

So it's normal for 1 file only.


But I'm ok it's better to have 3 KMs numeber.

But I can't Add KM

sorry
