I don't think it is a crown balding. Crown balding is generally accompanied by some frontal balding. But in your case there is absolutely no frontal recession. So it may be natural pattern of your hair.most people have bald spot there ,some people have prominent bald spot,I think you the one.
It is definitely not crown. balding

I think you're balding. It just doesn't look like general thinning, but absolute loss. Some guys thin at the crown over an entire circular region. Some guys start off with a tiny bald spot at the cowlick and the size of the bald spot gradually increases to a coin size and then thinning starts. Those who don't have a cowlick start losing hair along a line at the crown from left to right, and the thickness of the line gradually increases. That's what I've observed.
Also, I'd like to have a clearer picture of your hairline, from different angles, like a temple close-up or one that also shows your eyebrows so that the distance between eyebrows and hairline is visible.

There's a good possibility that you're balding (More than 50% probability).
Also, it looks like you've had an acute telogen effluvium lately, that triggered the balding process, but now the telogen effluvium has subsided. You can see for yourself that the sides of your head and your hairline are thin, and your widow's peak is massively thin, clearly indicating that you'll start receding soon. There might also be a threat of severe temporal loss, but I can't say that for sure.
Hope this helps!

As for the widows peak, this has been the same for 5 years and has not changed

Hairline is normal white mans hairline. About crown i'm not 100% sure but it looks like a whorl.
I’ve attached some more of my crown, I’ve tried to put a parting in it so you can see clearer! It seems as if my hair is blocking it

Also the sides of my head have always been that thin when I take a photo with flash on, it’s mainly the crown I’m concerned about as I am sure my hairline and temples are fine, check out the new pics I put up

Okay sorry to be a nightmare and keep posting pictures of my crown, but I’m intrigued to get a final answer ahaha, this is the most accurate photo I have of my crown, and by accurate I mean normal lighting and a close up of the crown!

Check your first picture in this post of yours in a dark room with the maximum brightness of your smartphone's screen. You'll get a clearer idea. You, most definitely, have lost some of your hairs at your crown.

Anyone who says this dude is thinning has the IQ of a small kitten.

First of all, I never said that he's thinning. I said that it's a bald spot and he might start thinning in the next few years. You can check this out in my first post of this thread. Also, I mentioned that he might have had Telogen Effluvium recently since his density is visibly less, but I may be wrong. I never said he has Retrograde or Androgenic Alopecia, though I said that it might get triggered. And I'm quite confident about his hairline recession, but again it's just my opinion and I may be wrong (that I hope I am).
Secondly, I'm a bit skeptical about this, but I still think that he's losing his hair. I never asked him to get on treatments. At the current stage, all he's required to do is to monitor whether it worsens or not.
Thirdly, my opinions are biased since I had a similar condition when I started losing my hair, though both my hairline and crown were better than those of his. I went on treatments after monitoring it for about a month. It's 11 months now, and I don't regret me decision. I did gain a lot of hairs on my crown, hairline and the top of my scalp. And the only treatment I was using was anti-androgens. I'm about to reach the density of a fullhead woman, and my hairline is better than a woman.
And lastly, we don't use much of our IQ in judging whether someone is losing hair or not. We use our experiences. Of course, IQ plays a role, but so does experience. Besides, humans don't have IQ of kittens or any other creatures scientifically, particularly when they're members of forums like this. No offence.
