Koh-i-Noor Diamond

I recently read a book about Queen Victoria and Prince Albert and learned about the Koh-i-Noor diamond. Queen Victoria wore it to the Great Exhibition of 1851. It later became part of the crown jewels and is currently housed in the Tower of London. Its story is pretty fascinating.
