Others saw members of the coronation and immediately thought they were trying to perfect a faith or strength build from Elden Ring.

Do you know pesetas? They are the currency in Spain, but they’re also featured in Resident Evil 4. Well, what if you could buy King Charles III’s crown in Capcom’s survival horror shooter? You can’t. Still, someone joked that if you could, the crown with the stolen jewel would sell for 100,000 pesetas. Or just about $662 USD. That’s not a whole lot for something this gaudy.

There were people that stretched the meme to pop culture references, like wondering if Star Wars’ Snoke, the supreme leader of the First Order, wore the golden robe better than King Charles III. (Spoiler: Snoke did wear it better.) Folks also replaced King Charles III’s crown with the Burger King one.

And of course, because King Charles III is in his 70s now, there are memes clowning his age. Yeah, it’s totally ageist, but some are still pretty hilarious.

There is no shortage of coronation memes to pick apart online. My fave, though, besides the silly Elden Ring ones, is this one that’s not exactly a meme as much as it is a chant during a Scottish football game in which the crown screams for the UK to “shove your coronation up your ass.” Brilliant.
