#Crown Artifact Commission Always Results in Fine Quality

Ever since the 1.7 update it seems there is a bug with commisioning a crown artifact where it always results in the lowest quality artifact despite any modifiers.

I have commissioned around 30+ crowns across 3 games, using high aptitude antiquarians, maxed out court lodgings and successfully hitting every opportunity to improve a crown's quality and yet I haven't received a single crown that wasn't the lowest quality "fine".

Other artifacts seem to be fine, I have high quality artifacts of every other type that I have commissioned.

Artifacts commissioned through your antiquarian are intended to be lower quality than ones received from inspirations, so this is working as designed.

"Lower" quality shouldn't have to mean "lowest". It'd probably be best if antiquarian commissions ended up having a negative modifier or something

Antiquarians provide low-quality inspirations?
Uh, any chance we can have that noted in the description?

I do not know if it's already taken into account, but it would make sense for me that the cost and quality of the "commission artifact" decision scales with the size and development of the realm and the skill of the antiquarian. That small kingdoms need to rely on inspirations is fine and would not be changed, same as the fact that dukes don't have access to a reliable way of getting great artifacts, but I feel like big, developed Empires should be able to commission great works without needing to wait for a specific person. That would also let common inspirations be replaced by adventures, which are more interesting, once a certain "strength" is reached
