The Crown of Gondor - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Does anyone know where I can find a drawing or picture of the Crown of Gondor? The reason I am asking is because when I read RoTK I could never really get a clear picture of what it looks like...

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure it looks like the helm Isildur wore at the Last Allience.

I've got it now. The crown of Gondor was origionally the Numenorean war helm that Isildur wore (Anarion's was crushed when he was killed) it was later replaced by the jewelled crown the Aragorn was crowned with.
So imagine Isildur's helm with pearl and jewels on it.
