I have been adding notes to Newfoundland and noticed we got both “The Newfoundland Government”

https://en.numista.com/catalogue/issuing_entity.php?id=4686

And then there is the “Government of Newfoundland”

https://en.numista.com/catalogue/issuing_entity.php?id=2700

 

They sound very similar, and I think it's just about how it's expressed on the note? Is it the same issuer or should I proofread the entries I have made and change them if neccecary?

I have a soft spot for origami paper cranes.
Read or watch about "Sadako Sasaki and the Thousand Paper Cranes".

Hello!

 

I believe it is the same issuing entity, written in two ways. We can concentrate them all in one (in the case of Newfouland, keep the second link) and then request the deletion of the first, which will have nothing.

 

We have a similar case in Algeria, with "Bank of Algeria" and "Banque D'Algerie", which I believe are the same entity (just with different languages). I'll research a little more.

 

Best,

Vladimir.
