King Charles III has been presented with Scotland's crown jewels in Edinburgh in a ceremony to mark his Coronation.
He received the crown and sceptre which form part of the Honours of Scotland.
The national thanksgiving service at St Giles' Cathedral also featured a new sword named after the late Queen Elizabeth.
The service echoed an event held in 1953 to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II's accession to the throne.
The Scottish Crown Jewels, also known as the Honours of Scotland, consist of a crown, sword of state, and sceptre, which are integral symbols of the monarch’s authority in Scotland.
