Searching difficulties?

I can't search for this coin directly. It appears that the search bar treats 1/6 and ⅙ as different enough that searching for 1/6 doesn't give this coin as a result. Is there a way to change this? My keyboard doesn't natively type fractions.

The searches with ‘1/6 thaler 1800’ work for me regardless if the top one or in the catalog section one are used (on pc and mobile).
1/6 ⅙ change should be done automatically by Numista and they should yield identical hits.

Do you use apple stuff? They seem to often cause problems.

It's odd. Searching 1800 1/6  brunswick doesn't show this coin, but 1800 Brunswick 1/6 does. I'm using a MacBook for this search, yeah, but it seems like the order matters.

And searching 1800 “1/6” brunswick works, too. Huh.

The behavior also depends on how you search for a fraction.
