The Cromwell Crown piece sold at Heritage on Jan 12, 2004 for: $13,800.00 (£11,000 in real money at the time).
When taking the obverse dings into account it may seem steep, for some, at today's prices.
After taking another look, I think that the reverse saves it, beautiful!

🤔why not model it in 3D, divide it up and number each piece and allocate a specific numbered piece of the coin to each buyer?. Then the concept of fractional ownership might have some meaning to a collector, i dont know.
I also wonder about the second hand market. It might be worth a punt in the short term. Shares will be on ebay for double the price or more before you know it.
Not really my cuppa tho’

On a more serious numismatic note:
Could this Aethelstan penny be proof, that Humpty Dumpty did, in fact wear a syrup?
Moneyer; unidentified (but the case is still open).

1 hour ago, Peckris 2 said:The first looks very much like V over A .. except that the bar looks much too thick? Given the thin-ness of the bar on an A it's also possible that it's simply worn right away on the die rather than being an unbarred A?
Yes Peck, certainly a possibility.

must it be traditional or modern? can it not be judged without categorisation?
Personally speaking, I think it looks mass produced and lacking any character so it leaves me stone cold, …. its bullion and i’d only pay spot for it.

Heres a contemporary cast copy for 300-500 which tbh is an extortionate estimate imo. Nevertheless, its a good copy.
