In the 16th century, its value was estimated to be \u2018the total income of the entire population of the world on a single day\u2019.

In 1852 she had the stone re-cut by the famous cutter Louis Voorzanger and bruter Fedder of Coster Diamonds.

In 1937, the Koh-i-Noor was set in the coronation crown of Elizabeth, Queen Mother.
