Ah! You have now dragged in Queen Alexandra!! haha
There is another source, blog, for the story of her own regal circlet. Someone is sure to provide that link, because I suspect the discussion has long since dropped off here.
Edit: I do believe Queen Alexandra did wear the Adelaide/Victoria regal circlet at least once.
--Previous Message-- : It's great to see all the interest in queen : Adelaide. I know that she refused to wear : the crown of Mary of Modena, and had a new : crown made. Does what Nellie wrote mean that : Queen Alexandra had 2 regal diadems? Because : her regal circlet went to Queen Maud in : Norway, and she also wore Victoria's? Or : could it be that one fo these circlets was : actually her coronation crown, with the : arches removed [as Queen Mary did at the : coronation of George VI, nad Queen Elizabeth : at the current Queen's coronation, as well : as at the State visit from France in the : 1950s. :
