Is it possible to add this catalog on numista ?

It was published in 1964 by Paul Balog and is about the Mamluk coinage.
We already have a catalog reference for the Ayyubid coinage from the same writter ("Bal #") that we wrongly use for the Mamluk coins because this one hasn't been added on numista yet :

Ok, what should be BAL changed into then?

We usually use "Bal" for both catalogs without distinctions.

However, if you have to enter a singular abbreviation for them, that should be something like "Bal I" and "Bal II".

He published the Mamluk catalog in 1964 and the ayyubid one in 1980... however the ayyubid coinage is prior to the mamluk one.
Logically, the Ayyubid would have come first if he had published them together and I think that would be less confusing for users.

"Bal I" : "The Coinage of the Ayyubids"
"Bal II" : "The Coinage of the Mamlûk Sultans of Egypt and Syria"
