This could be a double definition.

'crown represented in' is the first definition.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for crest that I've seen before include "Top point of hill or wave" , "Summit - emblem - cockscomb" , "Top (of wave etc)" , "Peak - comb" , "Heraldic device representing a family" .)
