LONDON, ENGLAND - JUNE 04: Queen Elizabeth II returns to Buckingham Palace in the new Diamond Jubilee state coach following the State Opening of Parliament on June 4, 2014 in London, England. Queen Elizabeth II unveiled the coalition government’s legislative programme in a speech delivered to Members of Parliament and Peers in The House of Lords.

The Diamond Jubilee State Coach is likely a smoother ride than the 261-year-old Gold State Coach, which will carry the newly crowned King Charles in a grander procession from Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace known as the Coronation Procession following the ceremony.

The palace also confirmed the use of other coronation regalia, including the Sword of State, a symbol of royal authority which has been used at several coronations and, in 1969, Charles' Investiture as the Prince of Wales. Three other swords will also be used: the Sword of Temporal Justice, signifying the monarch’s role as Head of the Armed Forces; the Sword of Spiritual Justice, signifying the monarch as Defender of the Faith, and the Sword of Mercy or Curtana, which has a blunted tip, symbolizing the sovereign’s mercy. The swords were first used at the coronation of King Charles I in 1626, and the steel blades date back to the sixteenth century, with early seventeenth century gilt-iron hilts.

Other regalia includes the golden St. Edward’s Staff, the silver-gilt Coronation Spoon (believed to be the oldest object in use at coronations, dating back to 1349), the Sword of Offering, the Sovereign’s Orb, the Sovereign’s Ring and two sceptres: the Sovereign’s Sceptre with Cross and the Sovereign’s Sceptre with Dove.

Queen Camilla’s coronation regalia includes the Queen Consort’s Ring, the Queen Consort’s Rod with Dove and the Queen Consort’s Sceptre with Cross.

The Tower of London announced last month that it will unveil anew display for the crown jewelson May 26, just twenty days after thecoronationof King Charles and Queen Camilla. The presentation will be unveiled in the Jewel House and shine a brighter light than ever before on the history and significance of the royal collection. The exhibit will turn back time with a display dedicated to coronation processions through history, showing a court suit worn at the coronation of George IV in 1821 and a herald’s embroidered tabard from around the same time. The display closes with the “most important and sacred” St. Edward’s Crown, the Sovereign’s Sceptre with Cross and the Sovereign’s Orb.
