Hello.
I would like to ask to add the column "Mint" to the collection export.

A new column "Ruling authority" is also welcome.

Thank you.

Some are in the 'comments' column

Hello,
A coin type can been produced in several mints. As of today, the mint field is not associated to the year lines. For example, if a coin type was minted in Denver and Philadelphia and your coin is from Denver, I have no way to determine whether it was from Denver or Philadelphia. Should both possible mints appear in the export? Should it just say "multiple"? What do you suggest?
At simple : 'two' in the Mints column, 'Denver / Philadelphia' in the comments column

The article 'Mints' of Numisdoc moved from Documentation to Encyclopedia supplemented by a graphic directory of mintmarks
possible ?

​Of course, this reduces the value of the collection in Excel, but maybe then all listed mints should be listed in Excel?
By the way, this leads us to the decision to leave comments with mints for the date lines.
