Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Crown - Charles I (Tower) ND (1631-1632) coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in England. Charles I was facing opposition from Parliament and the coinage was used as a tool for political propaganda. The coin features an image of the king on horseback, which was seen as a symbol of his power and authority. However, the coin was also minted with a number of errors and variations, which has made it a popular collector's item among numismatists. Despite its historical significance, the coin is not particularly rare and can be purchased for a relatively affordable price.
