ok i found the awesome bengal clave map in 2917 & these refs to the boundary crosses on it in 2949 & was so satisfied by the look & historical credentials of the green 50 & 51 corner that i would unhesitatingly proclaim it a very credible candidate for the worlds third boundary cross after jungholzs & baarles

& the green 35 with patagram salient meeting certainly looks & feels a lot less clear especially in view of its nasty avulsion or accretion question but it too still seems enough of a probability to pursue to exhaustion while also wondering brendan whether you really meant mathabanga or would also call it mekliganj on closer scrutiny

but in any case it sure looks to me at this point like ours is a world of 3 & maybe 4 boundary crosses
