how much is a crown in english money
Crown (British coin) Always a heavy silver coin weighing around one ounce, during the 19th and 20th centuries the crown declined from being a real means of exchange to being a coin rarely spent and minted for commemorative purposes only. In that format it has continued to be minted, even following decimalisation of the British currency in 1971. However, as the result of inflation the value of the coin was revised upwards in 1990 to five pounds.[1]
The Crown (TV series) An estimated 25% of the first season was filmed at Elstree Studios in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire, with the remainder filmed on location, altogether taking 152 days. Sets for private quarters, the interior of a private jet, the cabinet room, and the exterior of 10 Downing Street, were built at Elstree Studios,[27][39] while Lancaster House, Wrotham Park and Wilton House were used to double as Buckingham Palace. Ely Cathedral stood in for Westminster Abbey, while locations in South Africa doubled as Kenya.[27] Additional locations in the UK included Eltham Palace, the Royal Naval College,[40] Goldsmiths' Hall, Shoreham Airport, New Slains Castle,[41] Balmoral Castle, Cruden Bay, Lyceum Theatre, Loseley Park, Hatfield House,[39] The Historic Dockyard Chatham,[42] Southwark Cathedral, Ardverikie House, Englefield House, and the Glenfeshie Estate.[43] Filming on the second season began in early October 2016.[36] Each episode of the first two seasons would shoot for about 22 days, with each costing about GBÂ£5 million (US$7 million) to produce. The third season is expected to begin filming in July 2018.[32]
