It isn't often you see a coffin like this.
The casket that will house the late Michael Jackson for the rest of eternity is, unsurprisingly, a final show of the over-the-top luxury the singer was known for.
Jackson's casket, named the Promethean, was made by the Batesville Casket Company, which is based in Jackson's home state of Indiana. The Promethean, according to the company, is a custom-made design which sells for $25,000. The coffin is composed of solid bronze plated with 14-carat gold; the inside of the box is lined with royal velvet arrangements.
