The Crown is a clothing item added in the Royalty DLC. It provides a +20% increase to Social Impact, but despite its similarity to other headwear and seeming place in the progression, no nobles can wear the crown.

Acquisition

As a complicated garment, Crowns require Royal Apparel in order to be crafted, however they can only be made at Fueled smithy or Electric smithy which require Smithing to be constructed. A Crown requires 75 of any metal except uranium, and 12,000 ticks (3.33 mins) of work.

Crown can also be purchased or found on nobles.

Summary

Analysis

Crowns are a luxurious headgear that offers a significant boost to social impact (+20%), but provides no armor or insulation. Although the social impact bonus is larger than that of the Bowler hat, this bonus is also met by the Top hat and Ladies hat which also provide some small amount of insulation and armor. As such they should be replaced by other options as soon as possible.

Oddly, while able to be crafted and equipped, fulfilling any title requirement obtainable by a player controlled pawn. The crown is not even a requirement for ranks only achievable by NPC's.

Situationally, only equipping a royal "guest" would require the player to obtain one. BUT even the Emperor/Empress of the entire Empire, themselves do not require a Crown to fulfill their title requirement (which is the highest possible title).

This in all ways but wealth value, places it handedly under the Coronet, for royal apparel options. The Coronet which is cheaper (50 stuff vs 75 stuff) and faster to craft (8000 ticks vs 12000 ticks), fulfills any possible pawns title requirements.

Potential bug

It is currently unknown if the lack of utilization of the crown is intended or not. There is some evidence towards it being a bug however:

NPC Dukes and Consuls all spawn with the coronet but the ranks themselves require the stellic crown. This leads to the default gear of these nobles causing them to have a mood penalty. No matter which of the three types of headwear they are intended to wear, this is clearly improperly implemented.
The crown's position as a middle ground between in cost between the coronet and the stellic crown, which implies it is intended to occupy the space between the two ranks.
The crown's tag of royalTier6 compared to the coronet's royalTier5 and the stellic crown's royalTier7 further cements that its intended to be between the two ranks.
