Please can you list all the diamonds an jewels in the crown and where they (were they stolen from) came from? This would be more useful.

AbolishTheMonarchy

Won't go over his ears Needs a refit

I don't give a monkey's

And the crown that you’re trying to mention has been gone for more than a decade so shut the front door.

And another thing it was made by Faberge no your Crowns, look at a bottle of crown royal and you’ll see that the same.

Who gives a toss?! I feel genuinely sorry for whoever was forced to write this.

Sell it

Where she going

Farcical.
