Right Hon.Sir. J.C. Dimsdale, Bart., M.P., Lord Mayor' in gold lettering on the lid. J.C. Dimsdale was knighted in 1894, in commemoration of the opening of Tower Bridge. He was Lord Mayor of London at the time of the Coronation, and in 1902 he carried the Crystal Sceptre of the City of London in front of King Edward VII at his Coronation. The 1902 Coronation Honours list was released on the intended coronation day on 26 June 1902, and announced that Dimsdale would receive a baronetcy. He was created Baronet, of Goldsmiths, Langdon Hills, in the County of Essex and of Lancaster Street in the Borough of Paddington in the County of London. In June 1902 he received the 2nd class of the Japanese Order of the Rising Sun from Prince Komatsu Akihito, who was received formally at Mansion House as part of his visit to the United Kingdom to attend the coronation. An interesting piece of Royalty-related history.
