Curtis Yarvin, Hoppe, and nostr:npub1gdu7w6l6w65qhrdeaf6eyywepwe7v7ezqtugsrxy7hl7ypjsvxksd76nak have all made solid cases for monarchy and despite my ancap leanings I can understand the reasoning.

Todays Bitcoiners struggle to get normies to understand the problem with fiat let alone who is to blame with how money creation is.

I imagine back then it would have actually been much easier. Sure, barely anyone was educated, but everyone knew who the monarch was and every transaction involved coins so it would have been much more difficult to obfuscate whereas now with most being digital, there is additional layers of abstraction which hides the debasement day-to-day.
