Very interesting. I have a PDF copy of...
A Narrative of the Visit of George IV to Scotland, In August 1822. By an Eyewitness of Most of the Scenes Which were then Exhibited , Edinburgh: 1822.
I referenced it re: the Robertson White Line setting, c1820 - more specifically first-hand recognition of Highland Finery and Regency Dress, corroborating your SRT notes on that sett. Now, I'll have to re-read the text for observations of the King's kit itself.

Gentlemen, how would you like to work together on something like this?
An exciting project, John. I am of course interested.
PS I think I didn't get your '@' because you used an upper case C. I think user names are case sensitive.

Saw it on eBay too. In my opinion, it looks like Victorian era. That"s why I didn"t place my bid. I"m after mid 18th century pieces. But it"s a nice find.

It's definitely early 19th century and not Victorian. As for getting something mid-18th century, I absolutely no chance IMO.

Well, I did not say it IS Victorian, I just said it LOOKS LIKE that era.
And itīs a nice piece indeed.
