I mean coin sheets like this,
https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces75979.html

it says in bold Non selected trial strike, from this I conclude that is has not been made a circulating coin.

Then it says in a second bold line Non circulating issue. To me, this is redundant useless information.
The only way to delete the line at the moment is to set the circulating field to "unknown", but the refs think I'm stupid or trolling. So the better solution would be (to delete) not to display this information from tokens and patterns from the beginning.

(There should be an option button to select one of "circulating issue", "non-circulating issue", "token/medal/unrecognized private money" OR "pattern strike" -- this doesn't depend on this issue, as there may be some trouble with mixed cases of circulating tokens -- alternatively, the circulating patterns/tokens should be displayed as "circulating" at the top)
While it may look idiotic to display both of these lines there, they have their own meaning and cannot be just easily merged.

There are tokens that circulated for mos striking example.

And there is also one coin I know about - https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces2152.html which actually have one line (1993 small kč) which is circulating and non selected trial strike in one!

These should be highlighted, as they are the exception. You should not highlight 99% of all tokens because 1% of the tokens don't have the feature. And there are more important distinctions between different kinds of tokens.

​So what do you want to do with that coin? That would only be a problem if it was an own coin sheet. Would you want this to be the only coin to say "Trial strike" only, and all other trial strikes have to be "Trial Strike. Non-circulating issue."?
Yes, we should not highlight 99% because of minority. But you simply can not merge these modifcators into one. Also, reworking all of them would be painful job.

There is one easy solution on hand - chaange in the code, which would force "non circulating issue" note to hide, if "trial strike issue" is ticked at the same time. This would eliminate showing abundant information.

Please extend this to ancient coinage. That's stupid as they were circulating after minted.

Do you have an example? If the coin circulated, it should not have the "non-circulating" ticked.
