lord twining cites a hypothesis by reinhold n. elze that gisela, the daughter of the emperor louis the pious who married duke eberhard of friuli, may have originally possessed the crown and left it to her son berengar i of italy on her death in 874. berengar was the only major benefactor of the church at monza at this time, and also gave the cathedral of st. john in monza a cross made in the same style as the iron crown, which is still preserved in the church's treasury. twining also notes that the imperial museum at st. petersburg includes in its collection two medieval crowns found at kazan in 1730 made in the same style and of the same size as the iron crown. twining notes that while these crowns and the iron crown are too small to be worn around an adult human head, they could be worn on the top of the head if they were affixed to a veil, and this would account for the small holes on the rim of the iron crown. twining also mentions a relief plaque in the cathedral which appears to represent the coronation of otto iv at monza in 1209 as it was described by morigias in 1345 and stresses the point that although four votive crowns are shown hanging above the altar, the crown which the archbishop is placing on the king's head bears no resemblance to the iron crown.
