Richard III finally gets a 'funeral crown': Hand-crafted headpiece goes on display in York

Richard III's funeral crown (pictured) was commissioned by a leading historian who was involved in the archaeological dig that discovered Richard III¿s remains beneath a car park in Leicester
The 15th century-style crown has white enamelled roses on it as well as rubies and sapphires and is now on show at the Richard III Experience in York.
