Hello,
Is it possible to modify the abbreviation of this catalog (currently "SA #") to something more common ?

Auction houses and other websites usually use "A #" or "Album #" for it ; the SA abbreviation is very unusual and unexpected (I saw it nowhere else).
I didn't know how to integrate the Album references when I added my first islamic coins until I check a link where all the numista references are listed (don't remember where I found it though).

Apparently I'm not the only one as I saw some pages with the Album references written in the comment section like here for example : https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces150064.html

It's probably one of the reason why we have so many islamic coins without external references on numista : it's the most popular (and sometimes the only one) catalog for them, however the abbreviation is not intuitive for people who collect them as we expect something else.
Even about the SEO it would be a plus for numista.
I agree totally
