Citizen H Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Looking into when the first Victorian Crown was minted and in circulation got to wondering about... cinquefoil and star on edges If by chance would anyone have images of the star version I believe x 2 of mine are cinquefoil, 1 x ? its rubbed so why Im asking for a comparison. any comments on the crowns I have showing greatly appreciated. 👍 Quote
Paddy Posted 46 minutes ago Posted 46 minutes ago First and third are definitely cinquefoil. I can't make out what is going on with the middle image. Coins of England (the Spink book previously) has a good image of both stops - page 511 in my 2024 edition. Note also that for a long time a star stops version of 1845 was listed, but this has now been debunked and it is not listed in the more recent books. Star stops only occur on 1844 Crowns. Quote
