Raven Jubilee was presented to the Queen to mark the Diamond Jubilee in 2012, and later released in the Tower, bringing the total number to eight.It was long assumed to be the original as their weight is almost identical and an invoice produced in 1661 was for the addition of gold to an existing crown. circa 599–624)– at Sutton Hoo provides insight into the regalia of a pre-Christian Anglo-Saxon monarch.
