Besides coins I love geometry. The avatar consists of each of the 35 hexominoes used precisely once. With the 5 large yellow shapes placed like this, the solution for tiling the remaining 30 hexominoes is unique.
Nice design, ZakUK, thanks for sharing!
And thank you, Alberts_Here!

I have so many favourites, that it was very difficult to make my choice, but this coin caught my eye, so here you are. Not my favourite, but just one of many favourites.
Mine are crown sized coins
I have to agree - do you mean Crown as in currency or Crown as in the accepted size of a large silver coin (Generally the 36 - 40mm and weighing 25 - 35grams).
The latter
Egypt 20 Piastres silver 40mm in size, 83.3% silver.
I love coins. Especially silver, gold and anything really old.

My intention was Crown as in the name of currency, like Koruna (Czechoslovakia), Krona (Sweden) or Krone (Norway), hence my Hungarian Korona as an example and 'in any language' in the title.
Yet I'm totally fine with images shared of beautiful Crown-size (U.K.: 37.6 or 38.6 mm) coins or coins depicting a crown or a king or queen wearing a crown. My coin here has a lion wearing a crown and a crown on top of the arms as well. The coins shared so far are all awesome, thanks! Specifically I love the beautiful Coronato, which is a cool double strike error coin as well.

Gold Lion of Robert III: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces89884.html
Scotland's first widely circulating gold coin (there was an earlier attempt, but few survive so it is assumed to rarely circulated). It was based on the French ecu (crown) and later iterations were contemporaneously referred to as a crown.
The only named crown coin I have is the same as the OPs coin!
I will pick something else.
here is a 25gr 37mm coin I like very much, with a crown on it too! https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces11357.html
I think this piece is MS60+. mintage 62,500.

A Coronato of Ferdinand of Naples:
But if its the module we were looking for,
here's my 1873 Italian 5 Lira, likely will end up being graded.
This my favorite. I paid $142.50 for it, the most of any coin in my collection.
I did edit the pic. somewhat as I couldnt get a good pic. But the end result is pretty close to the actual coin.
