Hey Alik,

The crown-side is the obverse on your Crown Order (KO) there.

Interestingly, the miniature KO shows a Type 1 crown... very much less common on full-sizes. I can't be sure, but I'd bet Type 1's are also less common in miniatures.

Thanks!............

I love the detail of these minis. True craftmanship.

Great looking chain. Nicest one we have seen in a long time.

Absolutely great chain!

That's right, but we have to assume they used both styles at any time on the minis. Have seen them in 1900+ groups, however the big ones changed in around 1866...

Thanks everyone for your comments!

Here is another chain, just a little smaller, those about 15mm.
