If you’re talking about the purple cap - that is just fabric, and yes, that doesn’t always rise to the arches and monde (the metal bit above). It’s actually considered a little artistic for it to be crumbled.

have they released numbers yet to how many were estimated to have stood in line to view the Queen? Amazing to me that they only had one nut job in all of it that tried to rush the coffin

I believe the gold Sceptre on the coffin is the one that symbolizes parliament?? It is usually laid in parliament when it sits
