Egypt
Apparently Dr. Hawass said of this coffin that it belonged to a king of the twenty first dynasty though clearly this is not a coffin of a pharaoh and I have some doubt Dr. Hawass would have said that. The coffin was confiscated in Florida and is about to be returned to Egypt as having been stolen/smuggled.
One article says the coffin has a record that does not go back further than the 1970's while another article says it was removed in 1884. I do not know what to make but here it is anyway.
