Queen Mary's Crown, part of the [British Crown Jewels](https://www.worldhistory.org/British_Crown_Jewels/). The crown was created in 1911 CE. The central stone is the [Koh-i-Noor](https://www.worldhistory.org/Koh-i-Noor/) diamond which is now part of the Crown of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother and which is sometimes removed for Elizabeth II (r. 1953 CE -) to wear as a pendant. The crown is held at the [Tower of London](https://www.worldhistory.org/Tower_of_London/). (Image from G. Younghusband & C.
