Notes from Myanmar feature the names “UNION BANK OF BURMA” “PEOPLES BANK KF BURMA” and “UNION OF BURMA BANK”, is it possible to add these as issuing entities?
Done
I realize the banks I requested are the same bank as the Centrak Bank of Myanmar, just the name changed, should they be kept or removed? At least I think they are
Yes they are, but when name changed we create new entity anyway :-)
I added description with links to all 4 entities
The names used on Myanmar/Burmese circulating coins and notes since independence are as follows:
Notes 1948
Government of Burma ဗမာ နိုင်ငံ အစိုးရ
Coins 1952-1965, Notes 1948-1949
Government of the Union of Burma ပြည်ထောင်စု မြန်မာ နိုင်ငံတော်
Notes 1953-1958
Union Bank of Burma ပြည်ထောင်စု မြန်မာ နိုင်ငံတော် ဘဏ်
Coins 1966, Notes 1965
People's Bank of Burma ပြည်ထောင်စု မြန်မာ နိုင်ငံတော် ပြည်သူ့ ဘဏ်
Coins 1975-1987, Notes 1972-1987
Union of Burma Bank ပြည်ထောင်စု မြန်မာ နိုင်ငံ ဘဏ်
Coins 1991-, Notes 1990-
Central Bank of Myanmar မြန်မာ နိုင်ငံတော် ဗဟို ဘဏ်
Note that, although Burma was used officially in English until 1989, the equivalent term ဗမာ only appeared on two notes from 1948, all coins and other notes used မြန်မာ, which is Myanmar. Although there was clearly some continuity between these banks, I'd suggest keeping all the different names. The only question is how we represent the fact that the country was called different names in the two languages? The inscriptions are missing from a lot of the notes, so I'll start adding them, as this will help clarify matters.
