Message:: [QUOTE="brg5658, post: 1959576, member: 29751"]Sounds like a cool collecting idea.  I'm not sure an "album" would exist for such a collection as the diameter of "crown-sized" coins can vary from country to country.  Anywhere from say 35mm to 38mm (or a bit wider) are possibilities. Were you going to focus on particular countries or a single continent?  I have heard of others doing this, and it would make for a very interesting and well rounded collection! I'm guessing you already did a standard Google Search, but this <a href="http://www.studium.com/coins/crowns.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.studium.com/coins/crowns.html" rel="nofollow">webpage </a>is an interesting starting place. There is also a standard reference, "<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Standard-Catalog-World-Crowns-Talers/dp/0873412117/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1406745611&sr=8-3&keywords=Crown+coins+of+the+world" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.amazon.com/Standard-Catalog-World-Crowns-Talers/dp/0873412117/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1406745611&sr=8-3&keywords=Crown+coins+of+the+world" rel="nofollow">Standard Catalog of World Crowns and Talers: From 1601 to Date- Including the Early Continental European Listings</a>"[/QUOTE]
