Ex-Rockwood Collection.

The Order of the Sacred Crown is awarded exclusively to female recipients and it is the scarcest of the multi class Japanese orders. While the number awarded prior to the end of WWII is not known, figures from the Japanese Government show that approximately 60-80 were awarded per year since Japan recommenced awarding decorations in 1964.
