Re Post 6 - King George iV (1820-1830) was depicted by the Saint Edwards Crown.

There are only two main crowns to the British Monarchy - The Saint Edwards Crown which is only used at the Coronation, and the Imperial State Crown worn at the State Opening of Parliament.

Both are used by ALL Monarces Male or Female so it would not be out of order for King Charles III to use either.

It should also be noted that the Imperial State Crown looks nothing like the 'Tudor Crown' which is supposed to be the same crown!

It should also be noted that Queen Elizabeth II is depicted wearing the Imperial State Crown on several medals including the GSM & ACSM

I know of several Post Boxes that still bear the QVC Cypher as will many with the EIIR for many years to come.

Regiments that use the EIIR Cypher will change in due course, but we will have to wait and see re the crown.

God Bless Queen Elizabeth, and Long Live the King.
