For good reason, his crown was worn on the wedding day with Prince Philip and was inspired by the crown received from Queen Mary, and the miniature medals hanging on his blue scarf represent the royal family’s orders, the Mirror reports. According to the newspaper, both medals are copies of the pink ribbon, a light blue ribbon presented to the Queen by her father George VI and her grandfather George V.
This toy can sell for as little as $ 75 or as little as 70, and can be found on the brand’s website.
