So based on the listed prize options you could win a lot of crown items. However, this begs a question. What happens if I open one of these and it rewards me with a non consumable item that i already have? These items you can't have duplicates of and unlike crates they can't be converted to gems. So what happens?

    You won't get duplicates/anything you already have.

    Short answer: This won't be an issue, and you won't get duplicate collectibles.

    Don't worry, you won't get a non-consumable you already have. In fact, you most likely won't get a non-consumable.

    What I want to know is if 'you won't get duplicate collectables' means that you get nothing if you would have gotten a duplicate or if it gets replaced by something else.

    I assume from the programming perspective it just means a "If already has X then reroll" and from the players perspective it (the reroll/replacement) wouldn't even be visible.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis
