Re: St Edward's Crown
The Royal Collection has released a short video about St Edward's Crown.
When they say "it has been used at every coronation.... " I'm not sure that is the full story.
For Edward VII it was present on the Altar but he was crowned with the Imperial State Crown.
For Victoria I have read that it might not have left the Tower. She was crowned with the Imperial State Crown.
