in Wikipedia? Even its name is wondrous!
A crown from 700-780? Old enough for Charlemagne to have worn (if he did, which I'm very dubious about)? Decorated with a hammered-out Nail of the True Cross which is mysteriously non-magnetic? Used to be an arm-ring? And what does Wikipedia mean, two sections were lost? Lost HOW?
Anyone know any good sources to find out more???

I can't pin down clearly how big this thing is, but I have a nice imagine of big important emperors being solemnly crowned with a TEENY TINY crown.
