N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

Apologies for my ignorance, but do not know whether Bute Argyllshire, is the same as Bute Clyde Islands? If I have read 'Goatfell' correctly, there is such a place on Arran at NR995415, but beyond that I am lost. I have not found any Coates specimens from either that month, or that end of Scotland.

From Wiki: "From the seventeenth century to the late twentieth century Arran was part of the County of Bute.[51] After the 1975 reorganisation of local government Arran became part of the district of Argyll and Bute in Strathclyde Region." and like you the only Goat Fell that can trace is the one on Arran so reckon you have the right place!
