The article says,
Here, the "it" in "its abolition" seems to refer to "the crown", but I gather the Crown of Scotland has never been abolished. I suspect it was the county of Kincardineshire that was abolished in 1975. In any case, the sentence needs to be rewritten by some knowledgeable editor to remove the incorrect suggestion that the crown was abolished in 1975 (and to add a citation to some reliable source).

As of the date of this Talk-page post, the article says the Crown's rim is ornamented with four strawberry-leaves alternating with four fleur-de-lis. Anyone who looks at any photo of this Crown anywhere on the internet can see that that is blatantly wrong. Those aren't strawberry-leaves, which have three similar elements with a common center. (Look at Wikipedia's own assertion on what the Coronet of a Duke in the United Kingdom looks like to see strawberry-leaves.) Those are crosses, as they have FOUR similar elements from a common center, and WIKIPEDIA'S OWN ARTICLE on the Honours of Scotland says those are "crosses fleury". Also, you should be able to tell at a glance, without counting, that this rim can't possibly have only eight (four of each) ornaments on it. It takes some working out, but it probably has 20 ornaments, or 10 of each, on it. There's a way someone could miscount the ornaments and get, say, 12, or 10, but not eight. It indicates that someone simply didn't count them but pasted text without verifying it against any photo. (There is a progression of five ornaments from the footing of one half-arch to the footing of the next half-arch. That's 20, going all around. The front-to-back half-arch springs from, at both ends, a cross fleury, and the left-to-right half-arch springs from, at both ends, a fleur-de-lis. If the cross on top of the crown is not visible as a cross to someone looking at the Monarch's face, but, rather, rides in the plane of travel and so is visible as a cross only from the sides, then the reverse of what I said about the arches' terminals is true.)
