If you are from Great Britain and years ago you purchased 1965 Churchill crowns, would you please tell me if you thought that someday they would be worth a lot more money. thanks The 1965 British Crown (Five Shillings) was issued as a general circulation commemorative coin on the death of Sir Winston Churchill. There would probably be some expectation that the coin may have some value in years to come as is the case with many commemorative coins, but the reality is that they do not. There were over 19 million of them minted. The "VIP" Proof frosted issue of the coin which would have been packaged and sold at an initial high price, does have some value in the order of £800 to £900 GBP. No British general circulation coin has had any silver content since 1946.
A circulated coin will be exactly that, something you got in your change with little nicks and scratches all over it. The VIP Satin-finish coin is one that is struck using specially prepared dies giving the coin a slightly dulled, but high quality finish and, will be in some form of a presentation package or case.

The crown, or the Queen, actually has absolutely nothing to do with any court case! The term crown in England or State in the United States is simply used to represent the interests of the government.
Pre-1965 U.S. dimes are made of coin silver (900 fine), not sterling silver. In any case your coin is worth about $1 for its silver content.

It is most unlikely that he ever heard them. He was living in a mental void in the last five years of his life (1960-1965) The Beatles were not known by most people until 1962. In any case, Churchill did not have a musical ear. He made a special concession to Noel Coward by singing along with 'Mad Dogs and Englishmen', as Coward had made an important contribuion to the war effort, that had to be kept secret (from the public, but not from Churchill), almost to the end of Coward's life.
In the UK, the letter "S" in a Crown Court case number refers to the type of case. The "S" stands for "summary" and indicates that the case is being dealt with in a summary manner, meaning that it is a less serious offense that will be dealt with by a district judge or a magistrate in a magistrates' court. In contrast, cases that are more serious in nature are dealt with on indictment in the Crown Court and have a case number that starts with the letter "T". It's worth noting that case numbers in the UK are unique identifiers for a particular case, and are used by the court system to track and manage cases. The specific number you mentioned, "S202220802", would be the unique identifier for a specific summary case that was opened in the year 2022.
crown: Also called a stem or pin, a crown is the knob/button on the outside of the watch case that is used to set the time and date. In a mechanical watch the crown also winds the mainspring. In this case it is also called a "winding stem". A screw in (or screw down) crown is used to make a watch more water resistant. The crown actually screws into the case, dramatically increasing the water-tightness of the watch.
