I have published an article on the Catholic Sovereigns and Royal Guests at past Papal Inaugurations. The Prince and Princess of Piedmont (wearing Queen Margherita’s Musy Tiara) led the Royal Guests at the Coronation of Pope Pius XII at St Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican in 1939. King Baudouin and Queen Fabiola of Belgium (wearing the Nine Provinces Tiara and Wolfers Necklace) and Hereditary Grand Duke Jean and Hereditary Grand Duchess Joséphine Charlotte of Luxembourg (in the Congo Diamond Necklace Tiara) led the Dignitaries at the Coronation of Pope Paul VI, which was the last Papal Coronation.
