Morphology

crowned = crown (transparent) = crown + ed

Regular adjectival/past-participle formation from the verb 'crown' meaning 'fitted with a crown', so the meaning is directly derived.

Etymology

Crowned comes from crown, which means a head 'decoration' or the 'top', and a dental crown is like a small 'cap' put 'on top' of a tooth to protect and restore it.
