17th Century Carved English coffer or chest

Description

Very nice coffer or trunk.  Based on info received and found I guess it dates from 1640-1650.  Has style elements from Yorkshire, England but also some that could be Danish.  Coffer is in the US, and I am wondering if it could be an early american coffer, with crossover styles.  Would appreciate any insights.
