This brooch was a gift to celebrate the Coronation, so it makes sense for the Queen to wear it. Also, it would be wrong to wear great dazzling diamonds to s uch a service, because the purpose was to reflect the Queen's dedication to God and her countries - showing off with bling would not be appropriate.
