    In 1671, Thomas Blood entered the Tower of London disguised as a clergyman—and attempted to steal the Crown Jewels. His plan relied on friendship, deception and a crown battered small enough to hide beneath a coat.

    Discover how the audacious robbery unravelled, why King Charles II pardoned the would-be thief, and what the surviving evidence can—and cannot—tell us about this extraordinary crime.
