On November 22, 1922 Carter found Tutankhamen's tomb by far the best preserved and most intact pharaonic tomb ever found in the Valley of the Kings. One of the most fascinating finds was the mummy itself which was located inside three nested coffins. The innermost coffin was the richest of them all. Made of 243 pounds of gold and semiprecious stones. It is also decorated with colored glass which would just be ravishing when light hits the surface. The king holds a crook and flail associated with Osiris. His necklace indicates military valor. Lots of time a dedication was put into the details. The on lookers would flock to our gallery to see this beautiful craftsmanship. The actual coffin of a powerful Pharaoh of Ancient Egypt.
