Similar to the Cooch Behar discussion we should merge 

 

CatalogIndiaIndian Local and Princely states › Mysore, Princely state of
 

and

 

NumistaCatalogIndiaIndian states › Mysore, Kingdom of

I don't agree with doing that.

 

Aidan.

Why?

 

The logic we use in "modern" European issuers is to keep changes in rulers, forms of government, etc. over time all in the same issuer/sub-issuer, and to use the Ruler Group/Ruler feature to distinguish these eras/changes.  

 

Why not the same in India if it makes sense (and maybe sometimes it does not make sense)?

Krause lists independent kingdoms' & Indian Princely States' coins in separate sections.

 

Aidan.

Krause is just one catalog of many. To follow only their logic is foolish

I think all catalogers grapple with these dilemmas, and there is not a “right” or “wrong,” just a series of choices about the best way to be consistent in the context of each catalog's structure.
