Do you want to know how much Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin is worth?
Keep reading as we fill you in on all the specifics regarding the queen’s coffin.
The Times newspaper revealed on Monday, September 12, that Queen Elizabeth II‘s lead-lined, English wood coffin, which was eagerly anticipated for the burial ceremony by tens of thousands of people, was created more than 30 years ago.
According to what MandyNews.com has learned so far, the casket will be closed and covered with the flag and royal symbols so that the people won’t be able to sight the queen’s face.
Queen Lead Lined Coffin
The Times Magazine claims that Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin is constructed of English oak and lined with lead, just like that of her late husband Prince Philip, who passed away in April 2021.
The manager Andrew Leverton said, “It’s English wood, which is really hard to get and quite expensive.”
The coffin is made airtight by the lead lining because it will be placed in a chamber rather than buried.
The lid, which features the monarchy’s emblem, and the brass handles were made expressly for use with royal coffins.
The Times was told by Leverton that “it’s not something that can be done in a day.”
Who Made Queen Elizabeth II’s Coffin?
Leverton & Sons, the London-based funeral home in charge of the royal funeral, explained to a British newspaper four years ago that it had no idea when or who made the two coffins, which had been given to them when they began serving the royal family in 1991.
Where Is The Queen’s Coffin?
On Tuesday night, the casket will be brought to London after being shown in Edinburgh. It will be put on a purple-covered funeral cortege the next day at the Palace of Westminster, under security.
Her coffin will be covered by the royal standard, the symbol of the monarchy that is often flown over Buckingham, Sandringham, or Windsor while the Queen is present.
The scepter and the orb, a globe made of terrestrial material topped with a cross to represent the Christian world, will also be buried with the body.
The Worth Of Queen Elizabeth II Coffin
According to rumours, the late Queen of the United Kingdom, Elizabeth II (Elizabeth Alexandra), will be buried in a coffin made of English oak with a lead interior that costs a stunning $100,000.
Lead is used to line the coffin, a royal custom to assist the body last longer after burial in a tomb. In this case, the burial chamber was the King George VI Memorial Chapel at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor, which lies west of London.
Despite the fact that the coffin’s official value has not been disclosed to the public, MandyNews.com discovered a lead-lined coffin on the Alibaba website for less than $1,000.
