The Poltimore Tiara was bought by Queen Elizabeth II's younger sister Princess Margaret in 1959 for £5,500, which in today's money is almost 130,000\. Margaret wore this tiara at her wedding to Antony Armstrong-Jones, incidentally the author of her legendary photo session. After the princess's death the crown was sold at Christie's for $1.7 million
