i heard those in the tower were fakes-the real ones were stashed elsewhere-any truth in that
I heard that too, but as many said they were the real thing as said they were fakes. They certainly looked real. It would be a lot of trouble to imitate some of the stuff "donated" (nicked) by the Maharajahs. Like that solid gold wine cooler that is really a three inch thick bath tub.
We reckoned a real good team of blokes could have had them away.... with blokes guarding them with empty weapons. We was trying to figure out how to do it one night... in that guard room. lol

The Duchy of Lancaster is, the private estate of the British sovereign as Duke of Lancaster.[1][2] The principal purpose of the estate is to provide a source of independent income to the Sovereign.[2][3] The estate consists of a portfolio of lands, properties, and assets held in trust for the Sovereign, and is administered separately from the Crown Estate.[3] The duchy consists of 18,433 ha (45,550 acres) of land holdings (including rural estates and farmland), urban developments, historic buildings, and some commercial properties across England and Wales particularly in Cheshire, Staffordshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, Yorkshire, Lancashire and the Savoy Estate in London.[4] The Duchy of Lancaster is one of two royal duchies, the other being the Duchy of Cornwall, which provides income to the Prince of Wales.
In the financial year ending 31 March 2015, the estate was valued at circa £472 million.[5] The net income of the Duchy is paid to the reigning sovereign as Duke of Lancaster,[2] which represents approximately £16 million in annual revenues being presented to the Sovereign every year.[6] As the Duchy is an inalienable asset of the Crown held in trust for future generations of Sovereigns, the sovereign is not entitled to the portfolio's capital or capital profits.[2][5] The Duchy of Lancaster is not subject to tax.]

The Duchy of Cornwall (Cornish: Duketh Kernow) is one of two royal duchies in England, the other being the Duchy of Lancaster. The eldest son of the reigning British monarch inherits possession of the duchy and title of Duke of Cornwall at birth or when his/her parent succeeds to the throne, but may not sell assets for personal benefit and has limited rights and income as a minor. If the monarch has no male children, the rights and responsibilities of the duchy belong to The Crown and there is no Duke. The current duke is Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales.
The principal activity of the duchy is the management of its land totalling 135,000 acres or 550 km2.[1] Nearly half of the holdings are in Devon, with other large holdings in Cornwall, Herefordshire, Somerset and almost all of the Isles of Scilly. The duchy also has a financial investments portfolio.[2] For the fiscal year ending 31 March 2013, the duchy was valued at £763 million, and annual profit was £19 million, a revenue surplus gain of 4.1% from the previous year.[3]
The Duchy Council meets twice a year.[1] The duchy also exercises certain legal rights and privileges across Cornwall, including some that elsewhere in England belong to the crown. For the County, the Duke appoints a number of officials and is the port authority for the main harbour of the Isles of Scilly.
The government considers the duchy to be a crown body and therefore exempt from paying corporation tax.
