I can't figure what's the rule for having rulers' names in coins names.
For example:
Syria and Lebanon have no rulers names at all.
Is there any rule or the info is just missing? thanks!
This is from the guidlines for editing the catalog:
If the monogram or the portrait of a ruler shows on the coin, give the ruler's name. Separate it from the face value with an hyphen.
The ruler's name should be written in the country's native language. If the country's native language doesn't use latin script, write the English romanization of the name.
Verweis : "Jarcek"If there is a portrait, then there is a name. Basically.
Doesnt seem to be the case.
- All UAE coins have ruler name. Only some have portrait.
- Non of Qatar coins have portraits. All have ruler name.
but both are monarchies.
So I guess the rule is there is a name if its a monarchy?
