A rare cast of Diana, the Princess of Wales, will be auctioned off next week.
The life-sized cast of her left hand will go under the hammer at Reeman Dansie in Colchester, Essex.
The auction will take place the day before the premiere of the fifth season of The Crown, which will show the late royal in her final days.
It has been 25 years since her shocking death and items belonging to Diana normally cause a stir at auctions.
Earlier this year, a black Ford Escort RS Turbo driven by the princess for three years was sold for £650,000.
Made by world-renowned sculptor Oscar Nemon, the cast is expected to fetch up to £40,000.
Mr Nemon, who was working on a relief of the princess when he died in 1985, also did sculptures of the late Queen, Winston Churchill and Siegmund Freud.

A cast he made of of Sir Winston’s right hand is also being auctioned by Reeman Danise next Tuesday.
It is expected to fetch between £5,000 to £7,000.
The company’s royal specialist James Grinter said: ‘It is an amazing feeling to be able to hold the hands of two of the most famous influential Britons of the 20th century.’
