The late Queen Elizabeth II’s long reign made the House of Windsor a cherished institution in Britain. Following her 1953 coronation, the Queen met countless notable figures and embarked on numerous royal tours. Many of these individuals presented her with unique gifts, which are now treasured as part of the Royal Trust. It will be fascinating to see the new items King Charles receives in his royal duties over time.
It’s not just monarchs who receive special tokens, however. From LeBron James gifting cupcakes to a gardener presenting a giant cabbage, every royal has received some unusual honor. While some items in the Royal Trust are truly priceless, others are simply peculiar.

1. A Headdress

To Prince Harry, a gift
Donated by: Village elders in Surama
Est. Worth: Not specified
Before Prince Harry married Meghan Markle, he was busy traveling the world. In 2016, during a trip to the Caribbean, he visited Guyana. While there, local elders convinced him to try on a traditional headdress.

Photos of Prince Harry wearing the headdress surfaced online, showing him sporting Ray-Bans and looking slightly awkward. While the exact value of the headdress is unknown, its craftsmanship suggests it’s worth far more than anything you’d find at a local shop.
