I've read a bit about her before, she's supposed to have worn the
Koh-i-Noor diamond in her navel.


I do not know if she used to wear that around her navel never heard
about it. But it is heard that only with a women the stone can be safe
with.

Also, I think Maharaja Ranjit Singh
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranjit_Singh)
is the one who donated the gold that is
Golden temple at Amritsar covered with.
