<p>[QUOTE=&quot;princeofwaldo, post: 2955282, member: 24091&quot;]Typically a coin weighing 25 grams or more, but less than 30 grams.&nbsp; If it will fit in a half-dollar 2x2 it isn&#039;t a crown, though double-florins, thalers, and roubles still qualify even if under 25 grams.&nbsp; Also has to be silver.&nbsp; Those are the rules for my collection anyway.&nbsp; The Churchill 1965 Crowns in particular do not qualify in my opinion primarily because they are struck in base metal, which to my way of thinking was a bit of an insult to his legacy at the time they were issued.&nbsp; After all, Great Britain was still pre-decimal at the time, the coin was much smaller than any other Crown denomination GB had ever struck, and it totally lacked precious metal.&nbsp; Perhaps it was a deliberate decision to remind everyone of what a horrible Chancellor of the Exchequer he was, even if he later became a great statesmen.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
