Hello,

 

For this mint, we name it Bratislava / Preßburg / Pozsony, Slovakia but I noticed that most of the coins are made by the Pressburg Mint.

Can we add Pressburg Mint to the current name of the mint or should we splitt the old mint and the new one ?

They have the 1430 in their logo so I would guess they could be the original mint, most likely changed places multiple times in the last centuries. But I don't find anything concrete on their quite sparse webpage.

‘Bratislava / Preßburg / Pozsony, Slovakia’ is a location not a name so yes if they are in fact an iteration of the original mint, adding the most recent name might be a good idea even if it would be anachronistic in the context of medieval times. Maybe there is something written in the guidelines?

For your information ß = ss.

This would be a new mint entirely. They are continuing the tradition of minting in Bratislava, by producing some numismatic items, but it is not the same mint.

Can you create the new mint then?
