The big day is nearly upon us, with King Charles III's coronation now only days away, and Royal Mail have released stamps to mark the occassion.
One of the stamps depicts the King being crowned in the prestigious chair that has been used over the centuries in coronations of the Kings and Queens of England and the UK in the past.
The 700-year-old chair has been used by almost every single monarch since the thirteenth century in England. The stamp is printed in dark purple ink, and is set in front of Westminster Abbey.

Fireworks are exploding above the scene, and it also showcases a gun salute being fired, as well as crowds watching on in celebration.
Other stamps in the new collection reflect different aspects of the King's life, from his involvement with sustainability and biodiversity, to his celebration of diversity and community and the Commonwealth.
The new collection marks only the third time in history special stamps have been released to mark a coronation, reports the BBC.
The previous two occassions include the coronation of King George VI in 1937, and Queen Elizabeth II - Charles' late mother - in 1953.
Royal Mail is also applying for a special postmark to be stamped on letters in honour of the occasion. It will read: "Coronation of Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla 6 May 2023".
These will be set to run from today, April 28, until May 10, 2023.
Simon Thompson, Royal Mail's chief executive, said: "Royal Mail is proud to issue this set of commemorative stamps which celebrate the coronation, and some of the causes which His Majesty has championed throughout his many years of public service.
"I am delighted that they mark the start of a new reign and a new chapter in our history."
The stamps, which were created by designers Atelier Works, are available to view ahead of their general release at the Postal Museum in London from April 28, as part of an exhibition called The King's Stamp - The Postal Museum.
